The first half of the film drags a bit but that last hour is truly magnetic. A massively interesting topic explored with incredible subtlety, nuance and all the complexity it warrants. Fantastic performances and sublime directing. The black and white and the format work wonderfully.
I don’t know what to think about the ending just yet, though. I don’t appreciate the woman-on-woman violence, and feel it is the easy way out to wrap up the story. However, I could be missing the bigger picture and it is for sure a powerful finish.
