Living (2022)

Though the first half hour or so was stupendously boring, thinking back I see just how necessary it was. We needed to understand this man's life and how his days unfolded to truly comprehend the immensity of what comes next.

And, wow. This winds up being a surprise knockout. Nighy deserves his nomination for quietly embodying a man who opens his eyes just in time -- he was nothing short of inspirational. Gary and I both loved this.
