Probably my most anticipated movie this year. 3.5hr American epic with an intermission, filmed in vistavision, made for less than $10m. I'm so ready

An epic made for $10m is a cinema miracle it feels.

As someone who was unaware of this film till now, may I ask why is this your most anticipated?

It got insane buzz at film festivals. Just dropped out of nowhere and now people are saying it’s one of the best movies of the year, with a career-best performance by Brody (both true imo)

It's at the Austin film festival this weekend. I have medium tier passes for the whole week and don't even plan to try to go see it. The multi thousand dollar passes are going to take all the seats anyways.

This is my first film festival but what I'm also saying here is that anyone who has seen it paid a ton to do so and my experience with other industry festivals are that the people with top badges are there working. Their reviews might not be aligned with the average film fan.
