Viewing Notes

Yes, everything you’ve heard or read about Steve McQueen’s Hunger (2008) is true. Powerful flick. Incredible long take conversation sequence and possibly the best I’ve seen. Uncomfortable but absolutely worth that uneasiness. Love Fassbender more and more everyday. High recommendation.
