Such an impactful movie. I think the length of the movie really made it. They could have been a little more clear and elaborate at the end about what happened to the people involved. I didn’t keep track of the years, and 1957 and other years they mentioned meant nothing to me. I went and read the Wikipedia of King and Earnest, and that made me feel a lot more shock and anger than the end of the movie. Overall a haunting masterpiece. What did you think of it?

    It’s a Scorsese movie so of course everything about it was expertly done. I especially enjoyed the physicality Leo brought to his role which I haven’t seen him do before, Lily Gladstone definitely stole the show and I hope she gets the Oscar for her performance. I thought the radio drama ending felt a little out of place, however, and I could’ve used an intermission tbh

        I saw it pre-release in the theaters and didn’t take a bathroom break either, but I also planned ahead and didn’t drink any fluids for a few hours beforehand
