    Didn't know what to expect and wasn't disappointed!

    LIT XXI Century gets better after repeated watchings. First, it struck me as a fever-dream or psychedelic trip with insanely funny breaks to remind you that you're still on earth. But after rewatching, I think I might actually get it: it's a case of "a-day-in-the-life" for the lead character, only his experiences are at the extreme fringes of possibility. That he can navigate it at all, let alone relatively calmly, is only because it's just life-something that needs to be managed.

    The story and imagery are fun, textured and interesting. The humor, unexpected and outrageous, made me laugh out loud.

    Watch this with your good-natured friends!!!
