as with a novel, it's always advantageous to have a basic outline of the plot of a movie so one gets a better insight as the storyline progresses.
otherwise i find my self re-reading/re-watching to pick up on the nuances i missed the first time through.
Yeah, that’s another way of viewing it, and I respect that. I used to read synopsis years ago, but I noticed that, going to the movie knowing the least, makes me enjoy it the most. For me, even some short trailers are already full of spoilers.
Obviously I read the mínimum to know if I would like it. For instance, in the case of this movie, the review site gave it a 5/5 punctuation and I trusted them, it was also mentioned that it was a real-time movie simulating a whole continuous sequence from start to end (I don’t know how do you say
“Plano-secuencia” in English), and that it was an unpredictable escalation of events that lead to a crazy outcome. And I usually like that kind of movies.
I made the disclaimer because, even tho there’s no blood, the movie is emotionally impacting for many reasons. Yeah, there’s violence.
I will also add that both the direction and, especially, the performance of the actresses, are outstanding (personal opinion), for a movie with barely no cuts like this.
If you need to know anything else feel free to ask, but whenever I recommend a movie here, I’ll disclose as less as possible, because maybe there are others like me that want to face the movie knowing little to nothing.
I had a friend, mind you, who I went to the cinema with, and she used to read everything about the movie beforehand. I still remember when we went to see Aronofsky’s movie
Mother!, and as you might be guessing, I didn’t fully understand what was I watching, while she already knew the meaning and the message beneath the occurrences of the plot, which don’t have much sense unless you, more or less, know what is it talking about. But I think, movies like that, are an exception
