Had me shaken to my core

Rating: 9/10 (8 July 2019)

Midsommar is brilliant in many ways ; whether we're talking about physical, emotional grief, suggestive or direct fright, colours, light, and finally, nature...
I had a hard time to sleep, not because there are gore scenes (there are a few but it's not something major), but because this picture is a constant challenge to your deep ethical and personal values. Also, yes, the fact that Aster sets the movie in brought daylight is putting a major chocking factor.. I mean; when it starts you're either on denial that something bad's gonna happen or you just never see it coming. I was on denial...
For example: There are small details that also play with your empathy, especially the screaming (animal or human), not just the paintings.
I studied anthropology, I thought it was a good parody on some points. The end left me speechless: do we have to root for Dani, or should we have pity after everything that's happened?
