Melancholy Vincent Gallo Movie Stills That Somehow Make You Nostalgic For Heartbreak

Grief is like a slow-motion wave – you see it coming and prepare for it to engulf you. You don't even fight off the dips and dives it sends you on as you crash around the ocean floor, suffocating without reaction. Grief feels like you're watching everything from the outside, the sounds you hear are merely a distant echo of a life you're not a part of. Someone talks to you, and they could be minutes into a digression about black holes before you come to the surface and realize you have to respond now. It's like holding the hand of the deceased, letting it guide you motionless and aimless through the moving pictures you dissociate through. Time goes by without you realizing, you become so accustomed to the slow motion movements of your day-to-day, and a year could pass without a flinch of awareness. 

In Vincent Gallo's controversial film, The Brown Bunny, we follow the protagonist, Bud, as he travels cross-country in search of a motorcycle race. Grief is the essence of the film in the most raw and beautiful way. We tacitly understand what he's going through as he drives, cries, and breaks down. Enjoy these stills from one of the best movies. I love this movie.
