    Adored this movie. Gorgeous looking, nailed the action and big quiet scenes. Felt like a collection of photographs at some points (in a positive way). I’m such a sucker for rural Chinese gangster movies and I can’t explain why

    A contender for movie of the year imo. Best mob/mafia movie in years, incredibly moving. Taking place in Corsica is so cool because like it's an island, theres this air of claustrophobia to it. And of course it being centered on the father/daughter relationship fucking rules.

    A specific thing I liked and that the director remarked on afterwards was the role the TV and news played as almost a character. At the beginning of the film it was more distant…

    Incredible, why aren’t more movies surreal? Why aren't more movies this fun while being emotionally devastating? Why aren’t there more pieces of art about what it’s like to make pieces of art?
