How To Watch The Worst Person In The World

So, you want to watch The Worst Person in the World? Buckle up, buttercup. It's a ride. It's not exactly a Marvel movie, is it?

Step 1: Accept the Chaos

First, let go of expectations. This isn't a rom-com with a neat ending. It’s more like real life, but, you know, Scandinavian.

Seriously, prepare for some existential dread. And maybe a sudden urge to question all your life choices. But in a fun way, I promise (sort of).

Step 2: Pick Your Poison (Streaming Service)

Okay, where to watch this masterpiece of slightly depressing beauty? Check your streaming subscriptions. MUBI is your best bet, although you can find it on demand.

Piracy is bad, kids. But I won't judge your internet history. Just kidding! (Mostly.)

Step 3: Embrace the Subtitles

Unless you speak fluent Norwegian (kudos to you if you do!), get ready to read. And read a lot. Don’t even think about watching it dubbed.

Subtitles are your friends. Your very insightful, occasionally sarcastic, friends. Learn to love them, or at least tolerate them.

Step 4: Find Your Emotional Support Snack

This is crucial. You'll need something to hug (or eat) during the heavy parts. Ice cream? Chocolate? A whole pizza? Your call.

Just avoid anything too distracting. You don't want to miss Julie's latest emotional crisis. It could be a crucial turning point, or just another Tuesday.

Step 5: The People You Will Meet

Get ready to meet the characters. Aksel, the successful but older comic book artist. He is definitely someone to talk about after the film!

Then comes Eivind. A perfect example of how the film depicts a "nice" person.

Step 6: Prepare for Unpopular Opinions (Mine)

Alright, confession time. I might not think Julie is actually the worst person. Maybe she's just… figuring things out?

Hear me out! She's messy, sure. Impulsive? Definitely. But aren't we all a little bit? Maybe that's just me.

Step 7: Accept the Ambiguity

Don't expect all the answers. The Worst Person in the World doesn't spoon-feed you a happy ending. It leaves you pondering.

Life's messy, remember? This film mirrors that perfectly. Embrace the uncertainty.

Step 8: Talk About It (Or Don't)

Afterward, you might feel the need to discuss it. Or you might want to curl up in a ball and contemplate your existence. Both are valid.

Find a friend, join a film club, scream into the void. Whatever works. Just don't bottle it up (unless you're into that sort of thing).

Step 9: Repeat? (Maybe)

Would I watch it again? Maybe. Probably. It's one of those movies that gets better with each viewing.

Just give yourself some time to recover first. You’ve earned it.

Step 10: Don't Take It Too Seriously

At the end of the day, it's just a movie. A really good, thought-provoking, slightly depressing movie. But still, just a movie.

So, relax. Enjoy the ride. And try not to judge Julie too harshly. We’ve all been there, haven’t we?
