Cinema from a Decidedly Queer Perspective
I’m Still Here | 2024
One thing I love about Walter Salles as a filmmaker is his ability to find an eternity in a single moment. That may sound like a backhanded compliment for a filmmaker, but think about those moments in life when you suddenly become keenly aware of your surroundings, of the people around you and your connection to them, those snippets you choose to savor when you know something is coming to an end, when your life seems to stretch out into infinity and everything for a few fleeting seconds appears to be right with the world.
