Just make sure to leave your brain in another room.

Where did I leave that brain? I think I left the right brain in one place and left the left where I just left.

Perfect days, probably one of the best films I have ever seen. My other half says to me let go andd watch a film about a Japanese toilet cleaner. Why not ? The ending scene is beautiful,- absolute genius from wenders

Yeah. I particularly enjoyed the sniper who managed to park his van directly outside airport with a clear view inside of his targets.
Sometimes, in fact most times when I watch a film I like to leave my brain behind. It's a film, it's not real. Remember that old saying suspension of disbelief. Unless you are watching a documentary there will always be a need to accept the unreality. Just sit back and enjoy.

'Suspension of disbelief is the avoidance—often described as willing—of critical thinking and logic in understanding something that is unreal or impossible in reality, such as something in a work of speculative fiction, in order to believe it for the sake of enjoying its narrative. Historically, the concept originates in the Greco-Roman principles of theatre, wherein the audience ignores the unreality of fiction to experience catharsis from the actions and experiences of characters.]' - Wikipedia

But a lot of films are written well enough that you don't need to be a zombie to accept it all, and for me there seems to be a line. By all means use artistic license, but I just felt it became too much of a carry on.

I will find myself using this through the next 4 years of the US presidency starting January 20, 2025.

I can assure you that myself and all others that enjoyed the film, and many more films that used 'artistic license' such as that great Christmas movie Die Hard, are not zombies :)

That's exactly what a zombie would say.

I also like the great Christmas movie Die Hard. Carry On is a poor rival.
