Perfect Blue (1997)
So far, Ryan's been running things on Reel Deep Dive. He picks the subject, writes up the talking points for the episode, guides the structure of the discussion, and even writes the descriptive captions for this page (he feels weird while writing about himself in the third person). This episode, centered upon Satoshi Kon's psychological horror anime Perfect Blue, changes that dynamic. Rachel picked the subject, drafted the discussion template, and directs the trajectory of the conversation.
Join Rachel and Ryan as they take a good, long look at this influential character study. Thematic motifs include Perfect Blue's prescient exploration of celebrity branding, how the internet has eroded the barriers between content creators and their audience, the film's use of the unreliable narrator, the movie's feminist subtext, and whether or not Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan (2010) is a total rip-off of this movie.
