Baker understands modern America. He's clearly very interested in creating modern stories about "working class" Americans and has the technical ability and the taste to create a new style of American neorealism where the term "working class" feels outdated. Having only seen this and The Florida Project, he also seems to have a real knack for creating final scenes where we kind of float above the world we've been living in all along and I think both of those end wonderfully in a way that has only been topped by A Separation in the 21st century.
