My favorite movie, Hana-bi by Takeshi Kitano, always makes me feel so much whenever I see it.
When I showed it to my parents (my 6th rewatch), they were joking all the time about how boring it was, how lengthy the scenes were… Except towards the end they started getting into it. And it hit them so hard. They were not used to seeing movies taking their time to tell something deeply personal. My mom then said to me “I am thankful to not have stopped watching, because it will remain in me”.
So I think this meme is sometimes unironically right.
