This film is distinct. The message is not muddled. The style does not stray. Brady Corbet directed the hell out of this film. And it paid off.
The opening sequence is deeply upsetting. And I couldn’t tell if it was upsetting for the shock value or if it truly added to the story of this troubled young girl becoming an adult at age 15. Either way, I’d use caution when viewing.
This movie is stylish, well sequenced, and beautifully acted. I loved the little things, like Willem Defoe narrating, the credits rolling at the beginning, and the glow-up of the agent.
5/5, I’d watch this again, sans the first 5 minutes.
