We Need to Talk About Kevin [2011]
Dir. Lynne Ramsay
Remarkable direction of photography— red, as in quite a bit of films concerning color theory, remains a significant element through this film’s unraveling; but the more impressive choice, to me, is the use if match cutting between the mother and kevin, which serves to symbolize the morphing and distortion of their identities and accentuate the line between fear and fact — something this film sandwiches together rather than separates.
a haunting thriller, increasingly topical and artistically executed. I almost resent the beauty of this film as it goes on reflecting so much sorrow. Yet, Thats what makes it so captivating.
