Surprisingly, not the A24 release of this year I had expected to see. I had initially planned to see "The Farewell" but it simply didn't grab me.
Unlike old timey sailor speech, hallucinations, and forni-mermaid-cation.
Another award season, another role in which Willem Dafoe is probably the only nomination for a movie. Remember last year and "At Eternity's Gate"? That was certainly more accessible than this, a rather "Mandy"-ish assortment of a different, secluded life that just might drive one mad.
Yes, it's all black and white, with a lot of striking light sources. The aspect ration is also very akin to an older picture.
This movie can be summed up as 'Who's mad here? Who isn't mad? We're all mad here?'.
I'm not the person who says 'All movies need to adhere to a strict storytelling outline', there are some like this that are just nice to watch, not pretend you understand, but watch for the visuals and wondering just how far down it can go.
Guess we can also give Robert Pattinson props to being much more of a looker now than he ever was in "Twilight".
