This movie was amazing. It captured the unique feeling and atmosphere of Florida in such a perfect way. This movie also feels very nostalgic for me, I saw my childhood in a lot of the children in this film. Moonees acting is really good for a kid and I love the colors and visual side of the film. The ending also completely wrecked me, I actually think I got the closest to crying than any other movie I’ve watch. This whole movie helped the viewer attach ourselves to these characters and see a version of our own childhood in these kids, just for the ending to punch you in the gut. It’s terrible seeing the kids perspective, and I think that’s what really made me tear up. Overall, a spectacular piece of indie art, and I’m inspired by this film. 9/10
Sad and a little boring at some times but it’s magical kinda gives euphoria vibes
triste à la fin et pas trop claire mais sinon touchant 💔
