Stop researching this movie and just watch it ....alone.

Rating: 10/10 (3 January 2020)

I stumbled across this in Amazon prime wanting something to watch. I knew nothing of it...looked like light horror fare, synopsis mentioned "pagan" ...good enough...let's give it a go....no expectations unless maybe low...perfect set-up
*************************SPOILERS********LIGHT********************
First thing that grabbed me was the acting....Florence Pugh's performance immediately stings with an intimacy and realism that is unsettling...It felt like an invasion of her privacy to watch...not like an acting performance...then the writing, the dialog, the use of music(wow)...and the technique...It's over my head but I was very aware I was watching something far greater than I had expected...I was glued to the screen the whole time...I tried to look away several times because it's heavy in parts, but I couldn't...when it ended...I felt like I did after watching season one and two of "the leftovers" pretty much...just shock and awe...maybe joy and ecstasy? I'll watch it 20 more times to figure it out...in a word...Masterpiece.
