perfect blue

kon editing reality and performance into each other until neither you nor mima can tell which cut you are in.

perfect-blue.shrine

made in 1997 about parasocial obsession and online identity, which is a slightly unfair amount of foresight for one film to have. the internet in it looks dated. everything it says about the internet does not.

the apartment scene where the edit loops and you realise you have lost track of how many days have passed is the single best thing kon ever cut. paprika is bigger, millennium actress is warmer, this one is the sharpest.
