So glad to hear your thoughts on the ending. I had the same reaction as well. As my eyes were in tears, I wished loudly in my head that the film would end here now, please end here, because I could see that if it went on any minute longer, it would not be right. And the satisfying relief when the movie ended! Simply sublime.
I didn't notice that the fade out between scenes resemble the blinks. So beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Monte Hellman’s final film Road to Nowhere was a big influence on Close Your Eyes. Hellman was 80 years old when he made Road to Nowhere.

Great review! Close Your Eyes is now my favorite movie of all time. Would you guys take review requests?

​@@returntoformpodAre UA-cam comments the only way to communicate with you guys?

They said the same thing about Monte Hellman’s last film Road to Nowhere, that it felt Lynchian but it has nothing to do with Lynch. Same with this film.
