I didn't get it
7 July 2021
"All About Lily Chou-Chou" is one of those movies where, having finally made it to the end, I think I should probably watch it again and see if I can actually enjoy or understand it.

Its structure is highly fragmentary, jumping all over the place with different characters and different time-lines. At the end I didn't really know who the characters were. The movie is very well shot, and has a feeling as though something is going on throughout, I was just never able to pin it down.

I don't really know what the plot was about. I got that there was one student who is obsessed with the titular Lily, and he gets bullied. There's also another boy who everyone seems to hate, and perhaps one girl, but I don't know.

I didn't get it, but I came away thinking that there was at least something to be "got". If I re-watch it, hopefully I'll be able to update this review with a more positive score.
