Diary

About This Movie

So, 'Diary' is an interesting one. It's an animated piece, which immediately sets it apart from a lot of other films from that time. The tone is kind of gritty—think of a big city, and the life of an anti-hero navigating it, which feels very relatable in a strange way. The pacing can be a bit erratic, but it somehow adds to that chaotic feel of urban life. There’s a rawness to the animation that gives it character, not your slick mainstream stuff. The themes revolve around isolation, existential musings, and the mundane that we all can relate to. The effectiveness of its practical effects here is noteworthy too; it feels grounded despite the animation. Definitely a unique watch.
