    Some parts of this movie are a commercial Hollywood hellscape with some of the most jumpy and erratic cinematography I’ve ever seen 

    But some of the charm of the story does come through - the sequence when he re-meets daisy is perfection

    ★★★½

    The first 70ish minutes are legitimately peak, wickedly engrossing and enthralling, a 5/5 for most of it 

    Unfortunately it feels like it starts to lose focus towards the end. Not a fr fault or failure, and highly recommend bc the beginning is so compelling and I love the writing, but it does start to undo itself a wee bit towards the end

    “We have not become so much enlightened as we have been blinded by the gaseous light of science. I have wrestled with the devil as Jacob wrestled the angel in Peniel. And I tell you, if we are to tame darkness, we must first face that it exists.”
