Where to Watch Waves
- cultfilmlikerAugust 20, 2025🎶 Don’t leave 🎶 Another absolutely stunning choice for 4K. The frantic camerawork can be a little much at times but it looks very good!! The score is incredible as always with those guys… Was NOT ready for the Clams / A$AP drop. Got transported back to 2013 real quick And then “IFHY”!? Fucking “GHOST!”?!!?! Finish it off with Animal Collective why don’t ya I can’t not mention the Frank Ocean song quoting Elliott Smith with Alex G guitar on it tho 💕💕💕💕 good god Okay seriously tho the whole soundtrack could have been curated by me. Absolutely ridiculous. Between this and his debut film channeling my deepest anxieties, I feel we relate more than I’m okay with WHERE IS THIS SWIMMING HOLE
