"Daisies" may be an artsy film, but pretentious it is not. It is a fun, deep, surreal film. Not many movies can mix art and entertainment, but I believe "Daisies" does. There is plenty of absurd, silly humor and crazy, surreal images. Now, what is it all about? I'm not entirely sure myself. A good film should leave you with questions. A good film should be interpreted; not force fed. The story follows two young women, Marie I and Marie II, and their wacky antics. As for the greater message I can only tell you what I got out of it. The message I received is in reference to how people focus on petty problems (like youthful shenanigans) rather than on big issues (like war). I imagine everyone gets something a little different. If you're not afraid to try something a little bit (or a lot) different, I'd suggest giving it a shot.
Poor quality trailer, but it's the best I could Find.
