Review of Lucky

Lucky (I) (2017)
8/10
a rare gem: intimate, honest and accessible -- with zero sentimentality
21 February 2021
I think these kinds of movies are the hardest to make because they rely on mood, relatability and intelligence rather than action, melodrama or shock value.

the intimate filming style brings us on location and we almost feel the deep warmth of the desert sun. inside Lucky's world is a sane, compassionate and charming community with an authentic balance of strength and vulnerability.

so well directed. lean yet rich with detail. and edited to move at a nice pace: not too slow, not too fast. great cast too -- you could tell everyone was fully committed to this project.

and of course Harry was perfect.

8/10
