The Fountain. >_<'

also i'm not sure what they were going for with the social network's ending

haha I love almost all of these movies you guys have posted. I won't get into why for each of them but it's usually the beauty of them (combination of music/cinematography/dialogue as in There Will Be Blood and The Fountain) or the unique and ridiculous humor (A Serious Man and American Psycho). I'm not even going to pretend to be aware of some "higher meaning" in movies like this (like the end of No Country), anybody who claims to really gets things like that on the first watch is either a savant or a liar. I usually have to go and read an indepth analysis of the movie before it clicks, or just say, "Who cares. It was beautiful."

it's the Spanish Civil War doodthing;

the protagonist is stuck living in a small base run by a fascist general, and there are rebels out in the woods

where on earth did you get "WWII Italia" from

also the fact that such incredible violence is going on around her is one of the reasons that the stakes are so high for her, and the violent scenes help to paint her father-in-law as a ruthless general, which is pretty much absolutely necessary for the tension at the climax of the film, and for us to sympathize with her, her mother, and the rebels, as well as everyone else who is practically a hostage at the base

the fantasy aspect is like a child escaping from the horrors with imagination, or something to that degree

Thyme did you even watch Pan's Labyrinth?  huhdoodame;

Replace "world war II Italia" with Spanish civil war, then. doodthing;
