9/10
I put off watching this for so long because, having read so much about it, its style, etc, I knew I'd end up loving it...the point where I almost felt like I'd already seen it. But I hadn't, so I watched it, and I indeed loved it. Subpar DVD transfer aside, this is an extraordinarily beautiful, very original, and brutally sad movie. A lot of so-called "slow cinema" tends to make for a viewing experience that, while it's enjoyable, is not usually something you want to repeat any time soon...but I feel like I could watch this movie again tomorrow and be excited for it all over again.
