Matinee
January. 01,2009Drawn from an extensive collection of vintage knickknacks, toys, and souvenirs, Porter’s characters (with occasional help from a human hand) act in a succession of seemingly unrelated vignettes that together comprise a poetic vision of the human condition. Incongruities between image and music trigger unexpected political, philosophical and existential interpretations.
Reviews
Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
