It takes a long time to develop a movie, and PTA has reportedly been working on it for years. So the timing being so exquisite is pretty impressive. The acting is spot on, the script is terrific, and the filmmaking is beautiful. It’s a classic. I wasn't thinking of anything else but this movie when I was watching. It’s the best movie of the year by a lot. It’s probably my second-favorite PTA movie. It places him in a tier of directors who are mostly dead or at least Boomers. Chase Infiniti is a revelation, but so is Leo. This is cinema.
