From the first time I saw this scene, I felt marked by it. It is something that cannot be looked at directly. A message from a dream, one of those dreams that actually change how you think about your life and your context (those dreams are rare, I’ve had only one or two in my whole life). A message that is maybe unwelcome because it is not completely understood. You just know that after you have been shown the message, your subconscious leading you by the hand into that dark room, you are never the same again.

Most distressingly poignant scene/song in all movie history.
Distressing is right!
No hay banda. No hay comprensión of that masterpiece after countless viewings.
