Wanna see the rough cut of my movie?

Could get lost in Annapurna Sriram’s eyes, mind and music taste. Rarely does a debut film emerge this wholly and vibrantly realized. In an era where just the act of independent filmmaking is punk rock, Fucktoys is a transcendent cold shower for the drab and fascist hellscape your overlords want you to rot in. 

Trashtown, U.S.A. is sort of a dream, sort of a nightmare, sexy, sweaty, surreal, a festering America full of freaks and floosies where no one is invisible. Idk, if you don’t get it maybe you’re part of the problem?

More vague and vanilla than expected, but I love when Kidman taps her inner kid. Could not give two fucks about any scene with her clutching a max mara coat, looking severe or perturbed or gasping as she tries to keep her shit together. She’s the best at playing girlish. Put her in lingerie under a sheet and she shines. This was a nice departure from her tried and true…
