Brutally raw and honest...

Rating: 8/10 (22 November 2017)

Looking for something to watch on Netflix? I recommend Mudbound. It is a gritty and engrossing period drama film that explores post-WWII America in ethnic perspectives as the country descends into bigoted unrest. It's brutally raw and honest with its setting and characters, which are held up affectively by some excellent performances. Technical nit-picks include some poor color correction and sound design that took me out of a few pivotal sequences. Otherwise, it's a powerful film. I better see it at the next Oscars!
