    ★★★★

    most of my gripes are with the movies last 20 minutes, but i can’t deny the impeccable talent of jeymes samuel, and the combination of him both directing this movie and composing the music is blowing my mind, will definitely check out the rest of his filmography and discography

    am i the girl you're looking for?

    Suzhou River is a gripping film that feels like a modern grim fairytale.

    The inclusion of the videographer is what brings the movie home for me. There's something about having the main characters look directly into the camera at different points during the movie and gets us to really connect to them.

    The first and third act of the movie is it's strongest, and the second act slows the movie down for me.…

    Literally too stunned to speak. This movie is so many things at once, but that’s also what makes it work to tie it all together. Visually insane.
