OMG. This movie is _so_ underrated. It actually might be one of my favourites.

It is! We enjoyed this movie much more than we thought we would. Our Patreon subscribers really don't miss!

Love this film! The writer Steven Conrad, also wrote/directed my favourite tv show ever, Patriot! Definitely check it out if you can, tho might not be one for the channel cos I think it had an audience of about 40 people.

I've always been into photography, and I think that there's almost a reverence for photography in the story is possibly one of the reasons I like it so much. When you have a movie that's almost tangentially centred around the art of photography you really have to get your shots right, and they absolutely nail it in this, some of the shots are incredible, and the scenery. What always makes me laugh, the helicopter pilot, he reminds me of a friend of mine who I used to share an apartment with - I bugged him for years to watch it, and he eventually did lol. Funny enough, he stopped drinking not long after he saw it. Total coincidence I'm sure.

Thanks guys, I had a great time rewatching this with you! To me it is a hopeful film that inspires wanderlust, and it has a killer soundtrack. I find myself watching it at least once a year. I also think it's very strong from a directorial standpoint. Really beautifully composed shots, and well thought out storyboard. The CGI daydreams (mostly in the first half) are nicely contrasted with the on-location wide shots later in the film. On repeat watches you can also notice the color space going from quite grayscale to more vibrant colours. And the compositions go from very linear and narrow to very organic and open. All visual representations of the change in Walter.

I had no idea the Rotten Tomatoes score for this was so low! 😬 I read some of the reviews, and for a couple of them I don't think they quite got what the movie was trying to convey. 😅

Critics often miss great movies in their time. Most folks I know really love and appreciate this movie. Thank you once again, I'm really glad we got to watch this

Doesn't shock me, I've yet to meet another soul who's watched it lol. It's about a spy who's a folk singer on the side, very dark dramedy.

Severance is amazing! I hope you react to it at some point ☺️
