This movie touched my core and definitely moved me to tears. Wonderful perspective!
Big Fish Begonia commands awe on the strength of its imagery alone...while weaving an epic tale that’s uniquely informed by local myths and motifs. If only it made the slightest bit of sense.
In the sly exchanges between the teenage protagonists and their elders, the film reflects a nation's shifting tides.
It is a puzzle without a particularly interesting (to my Western eyes) solution. Whatever its visual qualities, and really the only comparison points are the weirder Japanese anime efforts, the strangeness of it all makes it a confusing big screen experience.
