Calendar Letters to the Editor Sunday, March 19
The only thing that came close to holding the film together as a narrative was the character played by Ke Huy Quan. It wasn’t a story, it was a lecture with occasional narrative elements. It provided a great deal to think about, and film isn’t well-suited to doing that. There were too many significant issues to contemplate in the movie, and not enough time for contemplating that significance.
Calling the film “Everything Everywhere All at Once” only explained the rationale for the smorgasbord of deep, meaningful human dilemmas; it didn’t do justice to their depth and meaning. It should have been called “Deep Meaningful Human Dilemmas, Lite.”Justin Chang need not be despondent in his less-than-popular assessment of the film that swept the Oscars.

I’m sure the visual effects and sound teams for “Top Gun: Maverick” and “Avatar: The Way of Water” made as many artistic choices as anyone else involved in the making of those films.Michael J. Benavente
