A beautiful, mesmerising film with a lot of heart. It has no dialogue but doesn't need any to work. It follows a black cat that has to find ways to survive a flood, making some lifelong friends on its journey.
Sticking together is so important in this day and age, as my partner so eloquently put in his review.
This definitely is a comfort film for me.
Strong performance from Florence Pugh, as per. A compelling watch but the reveal behind the Victory Project was very open ended. Left asking more questions then providing any concrete answers.
Like Bones and All, this film did stick with me hours after it had finished. The amount of suffering the characters have endured, especially Charlie, is a lot to take in. Fraser’s performance is painfully devastating. He tries to reach out to his estranged daughter and constantly apologizing for his friend Liz. When things inevitably gone awry, he gorges to give himself comfort. But this habit has cost him dearly.
I have an idea why some viewers have been critical…
This was the most excited I was for a film coming out this year, Martin McDonagh really delivered. It’s the In Bruges reunion I was hoping for. Colin Farrell’s innocent nature with Brendan Gleeson’s guarded character of wanting to create something that would stand the test of time. There were so many moments that made me laugh while in the cinema, the script was just impeccable.
It was good combination of bleakness and comic brilliance that I was hoping for.
