Three of the greatest of the greats.

Rating: 10/10 (9 May 2020)

I've seen thousands of films, long have lost even rough count of the books I've read. I see the best films more than once, the very best three or more times, the ones that improve with each viewing. Seen Sicario five times. It's one of the greats. And I'll watch it again, because so far it has not only been better every time, but breathtaking every time. Primarily, I attribute this phenomenon to one of the greatest performances of all time, by Emily Blunt in the lead role, around which everything revolves. Two of the greatest of the greats: this film and Blunt's performance.
But everyone in this film comes through, in every performance and technical role. And that is due to the direction by Denis Villeneuve, who is among the greatest of the great directors of all time. I have not heard of a great film offered in the English language that I have not seen, and I have never seen a better film than this.
