    Happy Birthday to longtime friend Midori. Fun fact: this was the FIRST photo on the FIRST roll of film of our FIRST shoot together - the Chinatown shoot for So Hip It Hurts which is when I also met Kumi for the FIRST time. It's very fitting for a post on May FIRST! #latex @planetmidori.bsky.social

    This happened recently with the film Midori. I think it’s very cathartic and well done depiction of pure evil and abuse and uses that as a way to get its point across but I think a lot of people still have some subconscious puritanical idea of what should be and let it effect their idea of art

    All 5,000 frames of this movie were painted by hand by the creator, and it creates a simultaneously gorgeous and unnerving art direction that truly enhances the film and elevates the clear passion and horror of this film. While Midori remains impossible to recommend, I will never truly forget it.
