I’ve been wanting to come to the board and discuss this film. You’ve said everything I could have and more.

Posted by: lobogotti on Jan 05, 05:41 in response to goodvibe61's post I saw several of the awards films over the break. For me,...

I left this one a week ago and I’m still thinking about it.  In fact, we’re double dating tonight and I’m acting as though I’ve never seen it.  I’ve managed to convince my wife and friends that we should go see this.  Can’t wait for their reactions, as it’s so ridiculously fun.

i was sort of surprised by the end at first, but after about 30-40 minutes on the way home it made sense to me.  I must say I expected something quite different to transpire, but the fact Lanthimos didn’t go with a traditional “karma/lesson learned” ending is splendid.

Fighting hard to say this isn’t the top film of 2018, but I think it just might.  The film better be recognized several times over by Oscar, or the fix is in.
