Chills at Bardem’s (perhaps under-appreciated) nuance in performing this arc so well and for Villeneuve and Spaihts for including it faithfully.

This movie is quiet, serious, contemplative, and cerebral. Don’t get me wrong, this is still very Studio Ghibli and includes fantastical worlds, unmatched animated beauty,…
