So this is obviously incredibly fraught, painfully difficult material that was inspired by a real place and by real stories.

i i want to say too that what makes the movie extraordinary is the way that the director ramel ross uses the camera and he and his cinematographer joe mufre they basically adopt a first person point of view approach meaning that at any given point in the story you're seeing this story through the eyes of one of the two lead characters and

It's a risky choice, and there's a reason why most narrative films are not shot this way. Although it's not unprecedented. Yeah, but it comes off. It touches chords of feeling that I think a more conventional telling wouldn't have achieved. And I should also mention that...

This movie features a really, really great performance from Anjanue Ellis-Taylor, who has, I think, been doing really terrific work all her career, but especially recently and especially in film.

My second choice is The Brutalist. And this is the third feature directed by the actor-turned-filmmaker Brady Corbett. It stars Adrian Brody in probably the greatest role and performance he's had since he won an Oscar for The Pianist. That was a long time ago. And in this film, he is again playing a Holocaust survivor, this time a man of Hungarian Jewish descent,
