Absolutely perplexed why anyone is rating this anything less than 10 stars. This film is a work of art, the the detail, the writing, the acting, the cinematography, the plot. I reckon cancel culture is blindsided by headlines about the director, and for that reason alone they are devoid of praise. Don't these people realize that all of the social movements are funded by money??? Appropriately, that is tastefully woven into this film. The trope of murder mystery is paired with a historical landscape and couldn't be more inventive or relevant. The artistic subtlety of political commentary is something I hope to see more of. None of this obvious crap, with regurgitated propaganda. Also- I haven't seen friendship like this since Harry, Ron and Hermione. How the bond of the main characters warmed me. Will be seeing this film several more times while it lasts in theaters.
