the slowest, subtlest vampire film i can imagine
about love, i guess, but
[spoilers, of course]
at the end of the day i feel like what it's doing
is portraying love between very old people
who are also, still, monsters
so old and experienced and yet still living and breathing and carrying on. sustaining. pursuing passions, but in an ancient, patient way.
the film itself is just as ancient and patient.
i can't tell if that's a good thing.
