Youth Eternal

About This Movie

So, 'Youth Eternal' is this intriguing exploration of millennials and their slow descent into chaos as they hit their thirties. The tone has this raw edge, with moments of vulnerability that feel genuine, almost like you're peeking into someone's diary. The pacing sometimes drags, but I think it adds to the whole existential vibe—these characters are really grappling with their choices, you know? The performances are pretty strong, capturing that mix of humor and despair. There’s a subtle use of practical effects that adds a dreamlike quality, almost surreal but grounded. It's distinctive for its focus on character rather than plot, letting the viewer just sit with these folks as they navigate their crises. Definitely a film that lingers in your mind.
