"Neon, an Electric Memoir" dives into the vibrant world of neon signage, guided by Gloria Raposo, whose passion and nostalgia seep through every frame. There's a certain charm in her anecdotes about both celebrated and lesser-known neon installations across the U.S. The pacing is leisurely, allowing viewers to soak in the glow of each sign, while the backdrop of the 80s pop culture adds a unique texture. Practical effects are seen in the vibrant colors that leap off the screen, and the film doesn't shy away from exploring the stories behind the tubes and their makers. It’s a quirky journey, a love letter to a fading art form, and Raposo’s enthusiasm is palpable; you can feel her connection to each flickering light.
