- cultfilmlikerJune 7, 2025Those are some boujee Czicks Dedicated to the proletariat 😤🫡 Some surreal, sexy, scandalous sociopaths! Several of the most splendid shots in cinema! “We’ll do something great, all right?” … “🔥We’re on fire!🔥” “Everybody’s doing it” Truly revolutionary Kind of like watching a trippy, old(-fashioned) real-life cartoon Fun Czech satire. Themes still apply today! Good for nothing leeches (I fully acknowledge the irony as a fellow “leech on society” - we’re both in the same boat in the end; or lack of one!) Idk if they were straining for yolk or shell but either way, fhey did a bad job of it! Dasha wants to be Ivana Karbanová so bad (sorry but she reminds me of her in the Antwon “Don’t Care” music video a lot) I see some inspiration for Lynch’s surrealism and comedy perhaps! Also maybe the inspiration for the music video for Sonic Youth’s “Bull in the Heather”??? Kinda wanna rewatch this with 3D glasses. Please let me know if this has already been done! The mixture of filters and editing were mesmerizing. I could watch those girls play those fake instruments for hours… Well, realistically, like 3.5 minutes (I know - Mr. Stamina over here!) Thought it was hilarious when it appeared as if they were on stage doing different segments of performance art Clearly feels incredibly influential! Also gorgeous in multiple ways! The scissor fighting was awesome! And the “elevator” scene! (Service elevator? Idk) There was sooo much spit out food on this set oof and so much moving the food around the plate 😕
