Beatrice's Favorite Movies
Underground
Unrated
This is my favorite movie of all time (so far). It mesmerized me with its fantastic storytelling and excellent music. Wildly funny, piercing, infuriating, and absurd at the same time. Go see it if you already haven't. If you're my friend and I'm in town, I'll lend you a copy.

It's the story of humanity, in pictures. It's absolutely breath-taking (that sounded trite didn't it). But you should really take the time out to seal your windows up, be in a really quiet place, say a little prayer or meditate, and watch this on a high-quality television screen. Listen to what the images and sequences are telling you. It will change your life.
