TiDeLand


I saw Terry Gilliams' Tideland this week and i really loved this film.It might have to do with the fact that my own life has been pretty surreal the past year , but this film touched my heart.
Little Jelaiza Rose is a girl trying to cope in the real world through the creation of her own special dimension. A place where dreams and reality produce a special , magic blend of sounds ,images, emotions and magic creatures.
Friendship ,love , hate, envy given in an extravagant way in this film . Simplicity and complexity in one combined. Shiny cover and dirty interior. Glitter and pain right in front of your eyes , presented in a magically surreal way by a peculiar poet..
Our hero will suffer the loss of loved ones in her own unique way, she will become an adult suddenly , painfully but in a different way.
See it... because you are a dreamer trying to cope with the real world through sounds, thoughts and emotions
Dont see it...Because you are a "peter pan" determined to forget the child within and burry your "Neverland" forever.
Dreaming ang wishing....
