Painful as it is, I think "Magnolia" is the perfect length. Form mirrors content, and what a sense of perfection, completion, and, yes, a desire for more. All around this gem, there are reverberations. This is exactly what we need to feel.

Perfectly rendered and emotionally powerful, but oh how I wish it were just the beginning of a longer story.
"Magnolia" is really intriguing. I would love to see it expanded!

Beautiful, sad, and touching.
This must be what it feels like. A wonderful story!
