Secrets & Lies

this movie draws out the tension in certain scenes to such an excruciating point and then it frequently gives way to an emotion more remarkable than you would expect. i just think it really masterfully uses suspense to the point of patience? even the last couple scenes when they finally blow up resolve themselves in such a patient but necessarily complete way. like every leigh movie the performances are layered and magnetic, will never tire also having seen high hopes recently you KNOW my ass was crying as soon as you see ruth sheen in the portraits montage with triplets being like “had a fertility problem but got it sorted out!”
