I'll second this suggestion. It's an old movie but it really holds up, and if anything is renewedly relevant right now. I'm reluctant to say too much about it because there's a couple realizations about the movie that you best have yourself.



If you feel like sharing your realizations here, feel free to use rot13 or shoot me an email :)

The first time I saw it, in senior high school, I understood nothing of it. It was just weird. I saw it again in my late 30s and realized it was a great movie – however, I will admit that it’s quite hard for me to articulate why it’s so good. I guess it says something about society and being human, but the wisdom is not at all on-the-nose.
