Never, Never, Ever!

About This Movie

So, 'Never, Never, Ever!' is this intriguing little gem from 2003 that you probably won't find in every collector’s library. It’s got this raw, absurdist vibe that really captures John’s existential crisis—arrested on his 40th birthday, and he comes to terms with the absurdity of life. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere, which feels both claustrophobic and oddly liberating. The performances have this understated quality that really draws you in, and while the director isn't well-known, there's something unique about how it tackles themes of realization and disillusionment. It's not your typical narrative, and that's what makes it interesting.

This film has a bit of a shadowy presence in the collection world, with limited releases and no major studio backing. The original DVD is somewhat scarce and can be hard to track down, which adds to its appeal for collectors. Despite its understated nature, it has developed a niche following among those who appreciate offbeat narratives and existential cinema, making it a curious piece for anyone looking to expand their collection into more obscure territory.
