    ★★★

    The immensity of that grief, the scale of that loss, it’s hard to wrap your mind around. Perhaps that’s why the camera was kept at distance so often; the tragedy staged within a roped square, and we’re up watching from the stands. But it also felt like trepidation. Scared to envelop that grief in a bear hug, some of the should-be sadness felt kind of empty, but in a way that reflected unfamiliarity, not the numbness of loss. I felt sad because of the inspiration, not the story. 


    (The scene with the black dress though: OOF)
