Shout by Lee Brown Barrow Movie Buff

mother! 2017

I love how this movie has split people down the middle. Boring and pretentious? Or is it a work of art? I err on the latter, but it's certainly not for all tastes. People have talked about the film as a Biblical allegory. That may have been the director's point, but to be honest, the theology within the film is a little confused. Still, there are moments that are spellbinding, a real waking nightmare for the mother of the title, and while overly bizarre at times, it was still beautifully made. Not perfect then, but still a treat for the patient viewer, especially those looking for something out of the mainstream. More like this please.
