Marie H. 08/14/2021 The film is a beautifully complex piece that challenges the viewer to pay attention! Requires a 2nd or 3rd watch, but the layers keep peeling back and you keep seeing more you didn't see the previous time. Visually it's breathtaking - the DP is amazing. The directing is superb! Skyler is going to be a force to be reckoned with. The acting is out of this world. If you want to see something new and different - this is it! See more 08/12/2022 I’m 40 minutes into the movie. And I’m under-WHELMed. Wanders aimlessly and the dialogue is uninteresting. See more Read all reviews
