I Saw the TV Glow 2024

★★★★½ Liked

Watched 27 Apr 2024

the horror inherent to knowing who you are and being too scared to truly let yourself come into it, the terror of spending every day wondering if it’s too late for you, if you’ve wasted every waking day deceiving yourself. there’s a certain sort of neurodivergent obsession (with works of art you gravitate to early on in youth) portrayed here to such pitch perfection, the awkwardness of trying to relay that passion to other people, trying to make yourself understand how it’s changed you… it’s going to make so many people Seen for the first time and i could not be happier for how this is about to change their lives. enormous, truly singular. a total fucking face melter. will have to sit on it for roughly the next eternity. if We’re All Going To The World’s Fair was the beta, this is the final release, an aesthetic opus of nostalgia dysphoria ghost horror. a masterpiece maybe?
