R.I.P.
damn. perfect blue was a pretty good film. i’m guessing you saw that one too mick?
Auuug, I hadn’t heard that, sad. Yeah Perfect Blue is a great film, it’s almost like an animated Argento flick but more cerebral. Paprika was beautiful too. Looks like he died young, 47?

Yeah, Perfect Blue was the first of his I saw. Somewhat flawed but compelling. I think I liked Paprika more.
Fuck, man. Perfect Blue was the trippiest thing when I first saw it.
RIP, man.
