The Chronology of Water 2025

Wow. A gut punch of a movie with some exciting cinematography, editing and sound design. I got swept up in the first half by the uncomfortable momentum of each scene, expecting something horrible to happen only to realise in the second half that the entire existence of our main protagonist is the horrible part. As soon as it looks like she gets a break a memory of her past rips through her. It's upsetting but I couldn't look away. Similarly to my feelings about <i>Weapons </i>i think the chapter cards do a disservice to the movie. Once you get past the 90 minute mark the end of every chapter feels like a 'roll-credits' moment only to be greeted by another fade from black and roman numeral. Looking forward to seeing what Kristen does next!
