It may be redundant to say this about any film photographed by Figueroa, but: CINEMATOGRAPHY! It is glorious, perfect and awesome. There was more than one moment that made me go "what?" The editing and sound design do not stay behind, and we end with something incredible. I am not feeling the story as a whole, since it feels a bit fragmented, but the rest is very good. I definitely need to rewatch this. Soon.
