Upstream Color -- first film from Shane Carruth since 2004's Primer

I am curious, did anyone else note the use of totally Post Modern Christ imagery in the film? The history of aesthetics and art is one of my hobbies and I have been searching for a specific example of Post Modern cinema and I really think that "Up Stream Color" fits that bill to a tee. One of the biggest thing that I find amazing about the film is the way that it has an absolutely straight forward narrative; a girl goes into a bar then this happens to her, then this, and then this and so one an so forth, but at the same time absolutely defy accepted narrative convention. I also recommend multiple viewings. I think that "Up Stream Color" is a significant film in the history of cinema.
