    Third time watch I think? Very humane. A real feeler. An unbelievably delivered journey and transformation uncovering this change.
    Or put better: 
    ‘Sound of Metal is a portrait of transformation measured by what is lost and what is found, what is given up and what is gained’
    Sound of Metal: Throbbing Eternity.

    Riz Ahmed absolutely outstanding (a flawless accent might I add).  
    The sound design obviously the most important element and the way in which it was conveyed to…

    Hard to believe this guy directed Parasite. Visually don’t think he really pushed it would’ve loved it to be more dark and dingy - instead it looked a bit like a marvel film. But can defo see him with this narrative.

    Forgot to log this. But coming back to log it 2 months later makes it a stand out film.

    Man I can’t get enough of this director, a genuine original mind. One of those filmmakers that really makes you feel. I still think about that club sequence.  

    I’ve seen a few films similar with separate stories weaving together that honestly haven’t worked out like this film. A fantastic rhythm and a beautiful watch.
