Pig was unexpectedly one of my favorite films from 2021. In this video, I explore the film's philosophy and how it fits in with the recent spate of John Wick-style revenge thrillers it mimics.

A fantastic deep-dive into Pig. I absolutely loved the film. Not only Nicholas Cage's performance but also the exact themes and approach to the story you laid out. I'm excited to see the director of Pig does with the world of Quiet Place with a Jeff Nichols' script.

What a beautiful video. It was hard to articulate what was so moving about this film, but, as usual, you did it perfectly. I love any film that is not only deeply aware of the genre it occupies, but works to do something new and personal with it.
