Edited into Fontaines DC: Bug (2024)
I thought this was a tremendous movie, got absolutely lost in it's layers of story telling.
Even the unexpected twist, as bizarre as it is, didn't jar in the way you might think
There's not much going on on the one hand but on the other hand, there are all sorts of little things happening that draw out a story and a set of characters who are credible and realistic.For a piece where there is almost continually an edge of danger and violence, it manages to navigate those waters whilst moving towards a very uplifting conclusion that had me going home smiling and singing to myself (I've not really liked anything by Fontaines DC but the use of their songs might have changed that and I loathe Coldplay and Andrea Arnold even had me smiling along to that section and it's use to stimulate a toad ).The soundtrack is great and appropriate, the performances are wonderful and the camera work fits the context of the production in a quirky and imaginative way.
