say what?

After a day of reflection, I still do not know what the heck happened in The Mirror. It seemed like it was a bunch of different memories strung together in an absolutely random way. That is not to say it was not a beautiful film.
Many of the screenshots, if taken as still images, would have been beautiful photographs or paintings. The shots that struck me the most were the shots of people walking either through the trees into the large field, or from the field and into the trees. They were stunning and full of emotion. There were several other shots like this, as the director seemed to focus a lot on what he was putting on camera. It stuck out to me much more than the acting or dialogue.
Once again, this movie made very little sense to me. It reminded me of reading Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury. The first part of that book was told by a mentally handicapped man who has several memories that are strung together from his life. This movie seemed to repeatedly flash back to memories and it was very difficult to tell what the plot was. In fact, at least The Sound and the Fury had a plot, even if you had to read it a couple of times to figure it out. I think I would be much better off if I watch the movie several more times. The beauty of the film makes me think it has a valuable story that I need to be enlightened by.
