Funny, gorgeously shot, perfectly paced + skewed writing of straight-gay fears abt biological dispossession / the burdensome inertia of finding agency in rural America…Hudson valley they/them gourmand dinner party cultures absolutely lit up..flat affects + fresh linens + raw pearls + a gorgeous coat made for excellent visual acceleration..fabulous childhood regression arc in the third act..similar to Alien: Romulus this one ended the maternal w/ something cheeky to say abt natalism…not TS enough in its considerations for me but that’s…
