Perfect Blue

Nov 24, 2020

Perfect Blue is an iconic psychological horror movie. It blurs the line of reality and imagination using the addiction and darkside to the world of fame. The animation is rich and eery, creating a noir sense which heightens the quality. The movie is somewhat explicit. The action is wrapped up with a somewhat ludicrous revelation, which, on its own terms, doesn't exactly make sense, but Perfect Blue has its own kind of cult pungency. Satoshi Kon works will always be held in high regard and this is a perfect example of that. In the film Requiem For A Dream, the latter director acquired the rights only to restage a number of scenes, and the entire film is the basis for Black Swan. For someone who thinks anime or animation is for youth, this is one that will change your mind. This definetly deserves a watch!
