Saw this Sundance Grand Jury winner on the flight back from Brisbane / Singapore.
Really excellent study in evil. Slow, depressing, grim, grey-brown mood builds inexorably towards unavoidable family conflicts of loyalty, with many a predictably unexpected twist. Some good out-of-sequence events arriving at & leaving the courtroom climax add to the temporary confusion. How bad can this get ? Even when the fat lady sings, somehow it doesn’t quite seem over …
(Be interesting to see on a big screen. The claustrophobic tight shots seemed so reminiscent of gritty TV drama.)
