FUCK i love moonlight and barry jenkins
this film is cyclical and you’re right in the middle of it. right in the middle of the world, in chiron’s world as he navigates his sexuality, his masculinity, figuring out where exactly a boy like him is supposed to belong. literally watching the actors walking in circles, following this motif of cycles.
trevante rly carries this home for me in such a controlled and heavy performance that is achieved just with body language and eye-line alone. the vulnerability is so lifelike and relatable i just am in awe every time i watch this film 😭
