I struggle with this film because on one hand PTA is my favorite director, and I know he excels at creating messy complicated relationships and turning them into something profound. And this movie does that, you can see how he he writes characters first and doesn't care about a satisfying plot or taboo subjects. And on other this relationship is too taboo, in fact it's pedophilia

My theory:

I know some people say the ending was like a dream sequence. But I think the ending did happen, and the bad audio was on purpose to throw us off into thinking it was a dream. But it's obviously not an endorsement or a happy ending

This movie is about the 70s.…
