The best American film

Rating: 10/10 (24 November 2019)

This is, hands down, the best American film ever made. Whether it's the best film ever made globally is more debatable. I first saw this film in the theater when it was released, and I admittedly didn't follow the plot correctly. But even not comprehending the plot logically, I still immensely enjoyed it, so touching and relatable is its emotional impact. Repeated watches allowed for appreciation of the plot itself; the film's adherence to logic and lack of plot holes makes it all the more impressive. Fifteen years later, life experiences make rewatching this film more powerful still. Charlie Kaufman, who wrote the screenplay, is a genius, and humanity desperately needs more films written by him.
