This was wild, I've never watched a movie and felt less like I was watching a movie. To me this succeeds in capturing the discomfort bordering on insanity that often underlies our interactions in the way Girls strains itself trying to do. I love that there's no catharsis either in the hunting thread or in the micropolitical dramas (in fact I wish Perrault hadn't shown the moose they killed near the beginning, it would've emphasized the Zoneishness of the hunt). I like the idea of Stephane-Albert as a fictionalizing aspect but I wonder how different it would've been if he hadn't been there. Of course we wouldn't have had the poem and my personal favorite scene the gutting of the rabbits but I think it would've been apocalyptically nutty even so.
