“Sometimes pacing issues drown out the tension that we know is embedded in the product, but it’s a work that should not follow our ideas of what movie dramas should be, and how they should make us feel. It’s an imperfect labour of desperation, and its flaws only make its realities linger all-the-more abrasively.”
