One of the most sublimely beautiful films ever made and one of the most heartbreaking. I first saw it on 35mm at the High Museum. Then it was released on laserdisc by the Criterion Collection, which I replaced when they released it on Blu-ray. I will be purchasing the inevitable Criterion 4K UHD.

I mean, look, all things change and end, we will all die, earth will be uninhabitable in a billion years, then the sun will expand and destroy the planet, and the universe will die a slow death of proton decay. But BEFORE THAT, let's make this place fun, okay?
