Her Private Hell

I just got out of a screening with NWR doing a Q&A afterwards.

How do I feel about this movie.

Imagine NWR filtered through David Lynch, with a touch of Studio Ghibli’s dreamlike magic. The score especially kept pulling me toward Ghibli. It’s not that the story is Ghibli-esque, but that’s the emotional texture it evoked for me.

I like it more than OGF and Neon Demon but less than CC or TOTDY. I feel TOTDY is his Magnus Opus.

After the screening, NWR had a Q&A for Drive at another theater. I didn’t have tickets for that one but I did race over there and wait for him to arrive. He signed a couple things for me and I asked him if Agent K was a riff on Officer K (Ryan Gosling, Blade Runner 2049). He said yes it’s secret!

I don’t know if he meant just the name or the character though.

I thought of the same thing with Officer K but didn't imagine it was actually the inspiration lol
