Featured review
The depression masterpiece
'An Elephant Sitting Still' is the most underrated movie of 2019. Sure, artsy-fartsy critics raved about it but the mass public will never know it. After all, it's a 3hr50min slow moving, Chinese epic about depression. In a world of super heroes and Instagram, patience is considered a handicap. Thankfully, there's an elephant of sadness and irony. It was the only movie by Bo Hu, the director and writer. He killed himself afterwards, ensuring that it'll become a cult classic, the greatest suicide 'letter'.
