Review: Criterion Collection: Life During Wartime [Blu-ray]

“But just when audiences unravel the first couple of knots – and congratulate themselves on their cleverness – they realize the gnarled mess at their feet has somehow grown larger, with twisting narrative threads that angrily recoil and wrap around themselves. Religion is jumbled with politics, childhood innocence melds with kinky sexuality and supreme beings cruise singles bars, all while the living freely mingle with the dead. Any effort to find the end of the ongepochkit cord is useless; it’s vanished into a new plane of existence.”
