    This very easily could've been way too bleak, but Lynne Ramsay has a real skill in balancing it out with moments of genuine tenderness, which she shows just as well in 'You were Never Really Here'. Even though these conditions are so overwhelmingly depressing there's still the capacity for love - even if it's unusual or unhealthy. Also somehow uses Something Stupid by Frank Sinatra even better than Better Call Saul, which I didn't think was possible.

    "What's this war in the heart of nature? Why does nature vie with itself? The land contend with the sea? Is there an avenging power in nature? Not one power, but two?"

    The world seen from God's eyes. Beautiful stuff. Also makes sense that Jim Caviezel was cast in Passion of the Christ he's basically Jesus in this movie.
