this one didn't call me a slut.
oslo, august 31st is better then its predecessor but i find myself not being able to fully connect with its ideas.
its character and world struggles with uphill battles, from addiction to human bonds but not everyone he meets is interesting or their story.
also i find the slow pace to slow in certain scenes.
it does help you let everything sink in but also maybe lingers on certain things to long. the final 10 min are my favorite part as we see that after the day, he still loses. it really drives its ideas to home.watch my films
