Peak once again.
My mom was NOT a fan tho
The subject matter is obviously super interesting to me, and it just hits the exact niche I love. The cinematography is some of the best I’ve seen, and the tension in nearly every seen makes it so intriguing and terrifying.
The general lack of a score also feeds into the tension, hardly relenting safe for the forest fire scene, which is just gorgeous.
The fact that it rarely delineates which side is “good” or “bad” serves the story so much better than an explicit narrative.
