Everything Everywhere All At Once (Rewatch)

 Hi again! I just finished watching Everything Everywhere All At Once for the second time. I loved it so much the first time that I just had to rewatch! This is visually and thematically one of the best movies I have ever seen. Beyond the message the Daniels directed incredibly. Not only that - the lighting, costuming, acting, sound, and editing were all Insane. Michelle Yeoh was absolutely incredible (I loved her in Crazy Rich Asians as well haha). I wanted to add some quotes that touched me and talk a little about how they touched me. 

“I saw my life without you. I wish you could have seen it … it was beautiful.” - Evelyn

Just so harsh haha, but I mean it’s reality. This quote made it on the list because it makes me think about the people in my life and how they have affected my decisions and life path. How if one person hadn’t entered my life I could have been on a different path. But I wouldn’t trade it for the world, I love my friends.

“If nothing matters, then all the pain and guilt you feel for making nothing of your life goes away.” - Joy

I strongly believe that things matter, but if this statement was true I would certainly be living easy. What would I do to not feel the pain I feel every day (not to be depressing)? 

These two are grouped:

“Can you please just… stop!?” - Joy

“Im tired. I don’t want to hurt anymore and for some reason when I’m with you, it just hurts the both of us. So let’s just go our own separate ways, ok? Just let me go!” - Joy

I relate to Joy so much. Not only for her depression but also  the familial problems. As y’all know my mother and I don’t get along and I just feel this way so strongly. I just want her- everything- to stop. I wanted her to let go but how will I feel afterwards? I don’t think its the step I should make.

"So, even though you have broken my heart yet again, I wanted to say, in another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you." - Waymond

Waymond Wang has quite a few quotes on this list and for good reason. This quote reminds me to enjoy the simplicities of life and not take the kindness that is given to me for granted.

"The only thing I do know is that we have to be kind. ... Please be kind, especially when we don't know whats going on." - Waymond

SO true Waymond. I'm not the kindest person in the world but this line makes me want to rework myself and be kind. I feel like when humans don't know whats going on we get scared, confused, and ultimately mean. So we must be kind. That will make the situation flow. 

"Just be a rock." - Joy

"Every new decision is a reminder - " - Joy

"We're all small and stupid." - Evelyn

I wish I was a rock haha. And sometimes we do have to do just that. Be calm and serene and just be who we are. Enjoy it. Because we're all small and stupid. And thats not a bad thing unless you make it so.

"Here, all we get are a few specks of time where any of this actually makes any sense," - Joy

"Then I will cherish these few specks of time." - Evelyn

Arughhghhughg what a cute mother daughter moment. Evelyn really learned how to say the right thing. She truly loves and cares about her daughter. And this is all something we can learn. To cherish what makes sense. The world is confusing and scary, but when you catch a glimpse of sense, of kindness, cherish it. We all need love.

"Unloveable bitches like us make the world go 'round," - Deirdre

"That's not true. You're not unloveable. There is always something to love!" - Evelyn

This line makes me love love. I AM lovable and no one else can say otherwise (although it would be nice if people did tell me I was lovable haha). ALso the relationship between Deirdre and Evelyn is so heartwarming at this point of the movie. They really connect. There are NO villains in this movie. Not Deirdre and Not Jobu Tupaki. 

"We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone." - Evelyn

If you can't quite remember this is said during one of the Raccaccoonie scenes. Humans as a concept are never alone. We are pack animals. Someone will always be there for you and you MUST remember that. You are NEVER alone. As Waymond said, "please be kind" and you will remember these things. Remember that you are not alone, that things matter, that you are lovable.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned for my next post!!
