Another triumph for Damien Chazelle

Rating: Null/10 (24 November 2018)

This film "First Man" honors an iconic figure in American history, Neil Armstrong. The execution of the film is one of the best I've ever seen. The standard three-act narrative structure is mixed with a sometime parallel narrative. There is a prefect balance and connection between the depictions of the work and family life of Armstrong. Claire Foy gives a memorable emotional performance and could be nominated for a best supporting actress award.
From a technical point of view, the sound editing is stunning, and makes you feel real. The visual effects and production design are also noteworthy. The editing is as good as in every film by Chazelle. Actually, this could be the best biopic in technical terms.
