Mima Kirigoe has just announced her retirement from the pop trio that built her career to pursue acting. The acting job is grim — a TV detective drama with a graphic rape scene the producers insist will be a turning point. A fan site appears claiming to be Mima's diary, written in first person and dated days she never published. Her old colleagues start dying in ways that read like punishments. The film tracks Mima's grip on the line between her former self, her new self, and the version of her the diary is curating, and what survives when she finally cannot tell which of them just acted.

[SPOILERS!] It took me 20 hours to come up with an interpretation of the story with the least amount of holes in it.
Perfect Blue is an absolute masterpiece of a psychological movie
An enigma of art and sound, sworn only to those who have suffered vanity.
Intense and in-depth study that shows how easy it's to manipulate the mind to lose your identity and sense of reality
A terrifying dissection of the themes of (modern) life
An exploration of identity from surrealism.
An Anime film of Japan’s idol and entertainment industry before Oshi no Ko
Good movie! Watch now! :-)
