    Jeremy Strong should without a doubt be considered one of our greatest living actors. Just an incredible talent and a chameleon. The scene at Mar-a-Lago is utterly haunting. He’s terrifying from the second he steps on the screen but manages to evoke your sympathy somehow (and I think that’s also a nod to the power of Sebastian Stan’s performance). Not a perfect film but its performances are memorable and timely and important.

    Ok now that I can post without Warner bros tracking me down for a lawsuit 

    This is a movie about LOVE and YEARNING and SACRIFICE and EMPATHY and yeah it’s weird and kooky and disjointed at times but whatever. I think everyone deserves to be loved the way Mickey loves Nasha. I will always love u Robert Pattinson.

    What a beautiful film. I really don’t know how you could come away from this thinking that Kieran Culkin is just doing Roman Roy 2.0 - his character here encompasses so much at once. He completely absorbs the emotional gravity of his environment and transmits it to you as the viewer. He’s both deeply connected to everything and a wanderer. You just wanna give the guy a hug. It’s just a really incredible performance. 

    I also haven’t seen a ton…

    Overdue rating since I watched this a couple months ago but yeah instant classic. Denis Villeneuve has his finger on the pulse and never misses.
