Am I the only one who finds the idea of having a "favourite" confusing? Are most normal constantly evaluating everything they consume and deciding whether it exceeds their previous "favourite"?
How can a comedy film be better or worse than an abstract arthouse film? They are trying to do vastly different things and I would watch the two in very different contexts.

I've not really noticed anything cryptic about it so far, I think its unintentionally hilarious at some points though just by the kind of matter of fact way certain things are described or how characters say things.
I'm at the point where Mizoguchi has met Kashiwagi and he's quite shocked at Kashiwagi's life philosophy and I think its a reflection of a part of Mizoguchi and he is disgusted by it but also desires to live that way in some way.

No, you're just an autist overthinking stuff. People just answer these questions based on gut feeling and maybe trying to be somewhat consistent with their previous answers.

I was maybe 16 when I read it and I found it cryptic in tge sense that it was deeply psychological and had such dense themes to it that my hormonal cum brain couldnt seem to grasp. I will go over it again and see how I have developed as a reader since.
