That ending really has had a profound impact on me. I’ve been thinking about its implications and what it means for the characters for the last couple days. It’s actually heartbreakingly perfect, the silence is so damn powerful.
Love the differences between the two parts of the film, all the rapid editing and vibrant colours of the first section are replaced with long takes with muted colours and lighting reflecting the somber turn in the narrative.
Mikey Madison is unbelievably good. She deserves that Oscar. Yura Borisov is also great - he says so much without actually saying anything, just through his eyes.
Goddamn it’s just so good.
