Burning

All the acclaim was justified - ‘Burning’ truly is a masterpiece, a remarkable work of modern cinema, a desperate and infernal poem on the deep terror of being a human being. This is a film that hypnotises you and never lets you go, even after you leave the cinema. The state that ‘Burning’ invokes, a state somewhere between asleep and awake, between hope and despair, between anger and horror, between violence and submission, is complete and unbroken, a work where everything that cinema is and cinema can be exists within it. It’s absurd how flawless, how perfect a film it is. For Australian audiences, this is easily the first truly great film of the year, and yes, one of the great films of this decade. - Daniel Lammin Read Daniel's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-burning-one-of-the-best-films-of-the-decade
