Millennium Actress
An actress tells her life story to a fanboy interviewer (and his cameraman), and the recollections are so life-like they are transported into diorama-like versions of it. In a stroke of genius, her story and her films are one and the same, and their plots span a millennium (hence the title).
A large change of pace for Satoshi Kon, after Perfect Blue. This is almost a pure hardcore melodrama, with funny bits in the middle.

This is my place for ramblings about sequences of images that exploit the human visual limitation know as persistence of vision.
