Wow…

Despite its length, slow pace, and abundance of lingering shots and scenes, this movie is endlessly compelling. Not once through the three hour and twenty minute runtime did it ever feel boring or pointless, every scene had a purpose, and in that sense I would call this a perfect movie.

My appreciation for it kept on growing and growing as it went on, leading to a very thought provoking and haunting open ending.

A hidden gem, criminally underwatched, definitely something I will be thinking about for a long time.
