This movie is like a painting:

Yes, indeed. A good movie - like a moved and moving painting.

Thanks for that.

Top pic: Beautiful.

Bottom pic: Frustrating. Besides the eyes in the lower right corner, is there also a man doing something?

That is what I call "fArt - fermented, partially digested information splattered on canvas - a lot of vulgar loud noise and no nutrients, no substance.

I'm sure it can be someone's "favourite" given the state of the Americanized world.
With clever marketing it may sell in the hundreds of thousands, or millions, like Biden junior's fArt.

My two types of creativity: Art and fArt.

Art exposes an interpretation of the world.
fArt exposes an interpretation of a reaction to the world.

Usually art pieces can be placed somewhere between the scale Art <-> fArt.
Music <-> cRap.

fArt and cRap trigger base psyche's, like a yawn triggers a yawn.

What I see at first in the painting is an angry eye watching the ship. The storm clouds form the face.

God's eye...representing the watcher, the subject.
Either the observer identifies with the ship - most likely - or the moon, god.
Helplessness.
