He gets a glimpse of his brother, which triggers a mental breakdown. It seems in disappointment blvd beau now has a son, which is a big departure from the beau is afraid script. Beau is afraid talks about those but manages to not say anything pertinent on those subjects What annoys me most is aster’s comments about his own movie He treats it like a joke He says in interviews that it’s no use trying to decypher the absurdity, because it’s meaningless
Nothing makes sense, don’t bother The goal of /r/movies is to provide an inclusive place for discussions and news about films with major releases Submissions should be for the purpose of informing or initiating a discussion, not just to entertain readers Im in the same minority Loved beau is afraid so much but i’d suggest charley kaufman and david lynch movies Watching beau is afraid, while exaggerated to the extreme, hit very close to home
I think entire movie is a literal nightmare beau is having If you listen to the sequence of events of the play, they start out as a completely alternate reality where beau carves out a life for himself Slowly but surely, a storm hits (some sort of traumatic event with his family, to me it seems like his wife/kids mother dies and he feels at fault) and separates beau from his family and the. !!!spoiler warning for the entire movie!! Beaus mother is obviously hugely controlling and has mentally abused him for years. I really think it's that simple
The twist is that aster has us experience the film through beau's mind (of a paranoid schizophrenic), which makes us believe nonsensical things are happening.
