Cherry

A nuanced take on a pressing issue! This film reminds of the GREAT 90's independent films in which directors made films that brought emotional realism to the forefront, while harnessing an aesthetic of sincerity. I particularly liked the peripheral characters such as the father and the monologue he had with his daughter. This scene crystallises the ways in which each character in this film both exhibit flawed but redeeming qualities. I won't give anything away, but this film definitely landed the ending and tied everything together, which is no easy task. I can't wait to see what this director dies next!
