99 - It's Such a Beautiful Day

    The animated story of Bill, a man who is losing his mind.
    Weird stuff.  It’s good, but it’s very strange.  It takes a little while to get into the sense of how this sort of story works.  There isn’t much of a narrative.  It’s more like a series of strange anecdotes centered around a person.  These anecdotes vary from very simple stories to completely absurd ones.
    The main point is that Bill is sick, but we don’t know what it is.  We hear a few potential side effects, but he seems to have lost a lot of his memory, but he can’t tell what has been lost, what has been retained, and what is just being made up.
    There are explorations of man’s role in the universe, life and death… it’s all there.  It’s just such a strange trip.
    Entirely worth the one-hour watch, at least for most people.
