The Last Duel (2021)
Recommended
Finally caught this film...The Last Duel is a story that highlights the endless complexity between justice for ignorance, honor versus tradition, and brutality with strategy driven by desire in the face of sacrifice. Difficult. Human. Proud. Morbid. Satisfying.
A Most Wanted Man (2014)
Criminally underrated
The complexity of morality on display is uncomfortably delicious and the egotistical simplicity of American behavior is desperate, ugly, and destructively abrupt. The ultimate commentary on uber Western reductionist vision and skepticism in all its subtle glory.
Philip Seymour Hoffman is exquisite ... lumbering, gruff, tenacious, half-enthused, invested, and resigned. A rewatch was warranted. Robin Wright is elegant and uneasy, Rachel Adams is gentle and distraught, Willam Defoe is exact and ambiguous...
RIP #PhilipSeymourHoffman ... in his finest and last hour.
