Ok, so Gaspar Noe chose this story, a heartbreaking story on its own. But the fact that he himself had a life-threatening brain hemorrhage makes this film much more personal. And this somewhat unique approach (that feels a bit of a gimmick) to filming this family drama makes it all a layer deeper and more interesting.
I just can hope my parents don't go on the mental health issues route at an old age. I can hope that for everyone but for some it is inevitable. Right now I feel incapable of forming meaningful words regarding this film. It was interesting to see Dario Argento as a main character, he did a great job and he carried this movie.
All in all, it's still a very Gaspar Noe film in the sense that it makes you uncomfortable with such ease it turns into a horror movie.
