People talk about the first ten minutes of this movie like it’s a sad short film. It isn’t. It’s a documentary on what it feels like to be left behind. Watching Carl drag that house across the world to keep a promise… watching him carry memory forward while shouldering the burden of loss. It’s a comforting reminder that time is just an illusion, you have to focus on the here and now, but equally nothing will take away from you what you had back then.
