absolute masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2019)

This movie will leave you gasping for breath, it is that stunning, shocking, and disturblingly perfect. I have never seen power struggles, back-stabbing, and manipulation so expertly portrayed. Put a weak leader in a position of power, and those under him or her will run amok. If I didn't know better, I would swear it is a thinly-disguised portrayal of the current (Christmas 2019) situation in Washington, D.C.
The acting, script, cinematography, costumes, music, makeup, EVERYTHING are exquisite. Do not watch this on a day when you are feeling the slightest bit vulnerable. But on a day when you are up for an unsettling adventure, cue it up, buckle your seat belt, and sit back. You will be richly rewarded. It will haunt you for weeks.
