This may be his best film...faint praise since his others, while being inexplicably popular in Japan, are juvenile and asinine.
This tells three stories, loosely interlocked, in a very slow, measured manner. The premise for each doesn't work and illustrates the lack of human understanding shown in all his films. But, along the way he creates some stunning images which, coupled with the pacing acted to pull me in and even to win me over. Or at least to ponder the meaning of what he was attempting to say.
So I'm not sorry I watched it...and that's a first for this guy.
