Watched the Utena movie.

If you stripped all the self-referential symbolism out of this, you would be left with,
1) Scenes of Utena and Anthy giving each other meaningful looks.
2) Scenes of Utena and Anthy kissing.
3) A scene where Chu-Chu gets stuck in Nanami's nose.
To which I have no real objection. I mean, it's a worthy enough goal for any film.
( I don't think it's actually possible to spoil anybody for this movie, but here is a cut, just to be polite. )
