The Whale (2022)

I looooved this movie. It is clearly based on a play, and if you can accept that from the start and just take it all in, this movie really takes you into emotional spaces i didn’t expect.At some parts I admittedly laughed when I shouldn’t but when the film reaches culmination it’s impossible to not be taken by the beautiful agony of this tale.This will win a best lead Oscar and bc Aranofsky used so much restraint I suspect he will be snubbed but as with all his films I guarantee you wont be able to shake this movie off.This is legit art and it will make you uncomfortable, but unlike Mother — it will be totally justified in the end.
