Somtimes way too fast and somtimes way too slow. I can see why it’s a classic tho, I think Goethe is a silly guy with a lot of thoughts that we should take in consideration, even today. Interesting characterisation of a men doubling down on his mistakes. Devil is in the detail in that one.

Weirdly really human, weirdly really monsterous, weirdly really emotional, weirdly really comedic.
