New Testament symbolism of this bad boy is so unsubtle as to be almost painful. Brecken's autopsy as Saul's "doubting Thomas" moment and his conversion afterward framed to intentionally evoke the religious ecstasy of Dreyer's Jeanne d'Arc. And his name is fucking "Saul Tenser."

Not sure why so many of you seem to think this one is reactionary; fundamentally this is a movie about rhizomes.

No star rating rn. Much to think about. Lea Seydoux has nice breasts and I'm a simple woman.
