Recensione di Red_Identity

Honestly, how this didn't get one iota of the hype that Son of Saul got is beyond me. As far as I'm concerned, the real winner of that Oscar for foreign-language film. It's so incredibly fixating and transportive in the world it creates. The cinematography is exquisite, the sound design impressive, and the directorial achievement here is just incredible. I never entirely understood everything that was going on, but it didn't stop the film from fully capturing me. The acting is also uniformly strong, and the film could have been even more confusing had it not been to the spectacular editing, which did a great job going from one storyline to the next, and one timeline to the other. I just think this is a really magical, really special film. It deserves to be seen by many more people than it has.
