The darkest comedy… I hated it but they did such a good job making me hate it.
And also crazy that Scorsese essentially tried to remake this movie with Killers of the Flower Moon in terms of focusing on a white male antihero and - while not necessarily redeeming him - humanizing him. Killers of the Flower Moon was the completely wrong subject to do that with though, whereas here I think it kinda works.
Some beautiful nature scenes and it of course tugged at the heartstrings. But I found it largely unoriginal and the messaging too simplistic, even for a kid’s movie. Perhaps this is my fault for expecting something more in the vein of solar punk.
What Cheryl Dunye lacks in budget she makes up for with thoughful reflection, pointed commentary, humor, and great fashion.
