Aftersun (2022) absolutely broke me

Wonderfully executed. You don't see that movie, you feel it.

The way the videotape footage is captured.

The late 90s / early 2000s feel.

Pure nostalgia.

No other movie made me feel this way and I was delaying watching it in case of a future 4k release (does not need it at all).

>!Nothing about the story is complicated, half through and towards the end you start connecting the dots on the alternate timelines/dancefloor.!<
>!Having dealt with depression and knowing how it is feeling you don't deserve happiness is portrayed in a way I've never seen before.!<

There's no point in the movie I found it "pretentious" of something that it wasn't and the actors chemistry was like watching indeed a father daughter relationship.

I find that nostalgia here plays a huge role of how things are perceived.
