Happy Hour (2015)
9/10
Subtle and reflective
16 August 2020
Worth it. It's long but you don't have to watch it all at once. It's a unique movie that foregrounds the slow details and nuances of the moments we experience. I think it expresses subtle, wordless feelings of magic and also anguish in searching for oneself and for fulfillment in our long (but short) lives.

I didn't always agree with the women in the movie but I related to how they were questioning the surface of themselves and their lives, searching for something more than what they'd fallen into or were told to be. The movie is humorous at times, depressing at times, and both. It left me with a feeling of silent reflection on the many sides to life and to people.
