I commend the effort of reenacting a scene with 90 actors/actresses from what appears to be one long take. However, it’s not groundbreaking or profound. It’s a simple, straightforward, inoffensive short film.

Taste 2021
While it does have some nicely framed shots and interesting scenes, this film did not captivate me. It would be better as a short film, if anything.
It felt like watching a series of nonstop odd art installations; which lost their luster as I became desensitized to them due to their frequency.

The Quiet American 1958
Apart from the main actress not being Vietnamese, the film was faithful and well acted up until the conclusion which undoes any good faith I had in the film. I’ve read the book and am aghast that they turned this film from anti-American interventionism into American propaganda. It’s no wonder that the author disavowed this film.
With that it became just another Hollywood film that has taken a foreign source material and changed the conclusion for American audiences.

I did not realize that what I was experiencing that day…
