If you loved 37 Seconds, try Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to 37 Seconds, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop is
An earnest if slightly saccharine shojo allegory masquerading as a haiku crash course. A laconic teen scribbles poems to mute a crush while a neon-haired girl balances stage fright and first love in a sun-soaked coastal town. The animation’s fizzy palette fizzles once the air leaks out of its metaphor.
