    Seriously? Colour me mildly surprised. Whilst I genuinely thought it was fascinating and worthwhile, I found myself increasingly at odds with the way it was being shot. I'll take another look.

    i guess it did seem cobbled together the way the footage jumped around in places. i was a bit uncomfortable with the lack of sympathy or deference given to the bodies, but i think that was partly the point.

    I'm sure that's entirely the point - dehumanising the subjects by turning their body tissue, organs, muscles and sinews into an abstraction and leaving the contiguousness of the autopsy entirely uncontextualised. Still, even if you get why he's doing it, it doesn't necessarily mean you have to agree with his methodology.

    how many times have u seen it? i came away feeling like i need to watch it again quite soon. not bc i think i missed anything important, but bc i want to take a more objective look at it. first time around i probably fell under its spell a little too easily and lost all hope of any critical analysis :)

    Thrice - and I know what you mean. My second viewing took a similar line of enquiry as your planned return. I also have a tendency to forgive and overlook deficiencies when reacquainted with certain filmic idiosyncrasies that channel pathos or existential transience. It's a bad habit, but probably one that I'm not too bothered about breaking.
