'Ticking' is an intriguing blend of comedy, drama, and romance, albeit with a psychological edge that complicates the narrative. It explores the psyche of Norman, a middle-aged man grappling with schizophrenia, and you can feel the tension between his reality and his delusions. The film’s pacing feels deliberate, allowing viewers to linger in Norman's chaotic world, which gives it a unique atmosphere. Performances are raw and authentic, capturing his struggle without veering into melodrama. There’s this underlying glimmer of hope amidst the turmoil, which makes it distinct. The practical effects, though subtle, amplify the psychological aspects, pulling you deeper into his mind's labyrinth.
'Ticking' is somewhat of an obscure title that collectors might find interesting, especially with its unique themes and approach to mental health. I've seen very limited releases, so it’s always a bit of a treasure hunt to find it in good condition. It piques interest for its psychological depth, and those who appreciate nuanced storytelling will likely appreciate its rarity in the collector community.
