Viewing Notes

Missed this at FF2011 knowing it would hit theaters soon. Glad I didn’t have to wait too long b/c lots of buzz around this film. And it definitely lives up to that solely on Michael Shannon’s performance. But nice work by Jessica Chastain as well. Intense drama and worthy of all the praise.
