What can you say ? I just finished watching Bubbys story (and somewhat Pops too) and it was just ... just puzzling and fantastic. The scenes were like different states of Bubbys mind and the story (just remember it is a bit surreal) was disturbingly beautiful. A glorious mix of melancholy, pain, love, happiness, acceptance, denial - well, the list goes on and on forever. That said, Im very pleased that it all stayed in the directors hands, not loosing it's rhythm.
What comes to acting, there were very difficult and challenging characters, especially Claire Benitos "mom", but all the actors (exept some of the "bands" players) did a very, very good job. There is some little acting parts given to amateurs, but it kinda fits the surreal style of the movie, to have plastic looking people (in Bubbys eyes). All in all Im very pleased that I did find this movie, and it made a huge impression to me but I have to give a fair warning. The is (even though it is fake) animal cruelty, and disturbing sexual scenes that will shock some of the viewers. That said. ENJOY.
