deliberate and restrained and gorgeous and perfect. this is perfect. so i guess one of its hashtags would be #holocaustfilms, but screw that. has none of the cheap sentimentality and baroque emotional manipulation of others in the genre. fights for and therefore earns every bit of emotional ground and percolates in your brain. which means that when the other shoe falls (it always falls), the moment is at once quiet and atomic.
