Yeah, definitely agree with you on all those points. I loved so much of what they did, truly appreciate the character development, and mostly the execution of the period, the vibe by actually shooting only on gray, overcast days? It was so goddamn well done, it honestly blows my mind how they even managed to achieve it. And with so little money! $4m to do a period piece. Honestly unbelievable they managed to achieve what they did. The acting, the look, the historical accuracy, the themes—literally everything about it.

Which is what made those last few minutes so jarring for me. It just stood out so much more in stark contrast to how well everything else came together. Kinda just took me out of the moment at the most crucial time. But you’re still right, it’s great and relatively only a small part failed to do what they wanted. So still a triumph. Just makes the shortcomings sting a little more.
