45 YEARS SPOILERS

Not surprisingly this one came to me by way of Ari Aster lol. The way he talks about it, especially the ending, it really seems like a bit of a companion piece to Midsommar, at least from the relationship aspect.

It's a ghost story in a way, because right from the get go you have this sense that something is "haunting" this couple, and as it's slowly revealed why, I really think you can start to feel horrified for Kate. Minor plot contrivances aside, the fact that you can live with someone that long and still not really have an idea about that aspect of your partner's life is really something that has stuck with me. Should Kate have probed further on the subject early on? Would Geoff have even provided answers then?

It's a very "quiet" film as Ari puts it, but that's why the ending hits so hard. She's realized she was just settled for, and the "dream" life she had is gone forever. Any film that can really put you in someone's shoes like that is to me top-shelf art.

9/10
