I love this. I felt like it was one of the most original works of any genre I’ve seen in a long time. And I’m reminded how life-giving originality is. I haven’t been able to look at any color - especially navy blue - since. And I am still laughing about the bit about the cell phone having a soul. Also the clock set piece was EVERYTHING.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes--I co-sign all of this 100%, but especially the part about how life-giving originality is. I left the theatre feeling INVIGORATED because what I had just seen was so unique. And also the part about now seeing every color differently...though, perhaps unsurprisingly, the one I keep thinking about is fuchsia. 😂

If you can catch Torres's My Favorite Shapes on HBO Max, do so! Bibo was a holdover from his HBO show Fantasmas which shares a lot of DNA with Color Theories. His film, Problemista is the best look at the grind of trying to secure sponsorship to stay in The US. Of course Papyrus and Papyrus II are the best rationale for the Avatar films.

More Bibo!?!?! I can't wait!

The first thing I said to myself after seeing this was, "I want to live in his brain and on that set."
