   Maybe more relevant today that ever: that scene when Kusanagi talks to Batou about how a lot of her employer's property forms parts of her body and her identity and she would loose those and become someone else if she ever quit.

   That one really hits home now as so much of our online lives is controlled by some billionaire how doesn't care one but about us.

     Ghost in the Shell (1995) remains a remarkable film.

     Ever time I watch it I forget how short it actually is, just 1h22m. With it's fairly dense plot and a lot of stuff going on it still takes the time to be calm and deliberate, to linger on a single visual and some music, and even an extended audio-visual vibe intermission.

     It does so much with so little.
