female-protagonist

Really quite uncomfortable. Mia McKenna-Bruce is outstanding: in the film’s third act, the camera sometimes lingers on her face for minutes at a time, and they are some of film’s most powerful moments.

Rose Byrne is almost the sole focus. There are several important voices that we barely see. A formal choice that doubles as the argument. What it generates is noise. Overwhelm, guilt, the low hum of panic even when nothing’s on fire; and here, quite a lot is.

I expected a materialistic thriller and I got an iPhone ghost story about grief. Quietly great!

Jennifer Lawrence is, again, incredible here

This will be a specific kind of young person’s favourite film for the rest of their life. 10/10 soundtrack

Excellent. Quiet, subtle, really well observed. Lovely to look at too.

Chases the Heathers energy but adds a few too many plot twists and minutes.
