No Such Thing

Imagine something that should not be? Imagine that it is and we made it so because we needed to believe in monsters to make us more human? This isn't a movie about good and evil or death or ugliness. It's about the beauty that we possess because we consign the ugly nature to something that we can point to and say "that is not us", to make us justified that we are not it.

If you see one movie, see this one. It's subtle. Watch it more than once. Watch it a few times and leave your disbelief at the door. Every actor who isn't a caricature of whom they need to be is simply just heartbreaking. The acting is comic while being better than you could ever imagine. The lines, while cartoonish in some cases, resonate and make the story.

The monster is us and we are not him. That's why this movie is so good.
