he's so androgynous here… like if a man and a woman had a baby.

my thoughts on Trust (2018) (because there are many)

i came as part of my marinelli filmography mission and i was not expecting to love it as much as i did it’s absolutely brilliant

fletcher chase was absolutely one of my favourite parts the way he connected the audience to the show and encouraged us to examine everything and try to understand the story was so fun, he should’ve been used more also the last episode where he hints at little paul’s future and says ‘google it’ THAT WAS COLD AF pure genius

harris dickinson was amazing and while i do wish they would’ve cast someone who actually looked fifteen he created a character to care about so well

my other personal standout was michael esper as paul jr, the way you are able to both dislike him for the shitty things he does while also so intimately understand where it all comes from was very emotionally intense and just outstanding

nearly all the characters had these fleshed out three dimensions that prevented it from being black and white, literally everyone does at least one thing you can disagree with yet nearly all of them get the chance to lay out their truth so you understand ‘i am a person and this is what i am doing but it is not the whole story. this act is not me. it is not that simple.’

speaking of which (i had to mention him when he brought me here) primo. while he was always going to be brilliant in luca’s particular brand of entertainingly unhinged, i didn’t expect to not hate him. there were certainly moments when i did, but when he stands at the port in the finale, there was something almost satisfying about it? especially regarding his dealings with salvatore and francesco. the parallels between the guys in calabria and the gettys are just wonderful narratively.

(little mention for angelo. i loved him in episode 5 and when primo showed up and did that i was devastated.)

god donald sutherland can play a villain. the frustration and fury and desperation of his family rubs off on you as you watch, so many times i was yelling at the screen and wondering how someone could be so awful. the scene where paul jr lost his lover and called asking for help stands out in my memory.

so many great shots, great edits, great soundtrack. this is just so well done, it was such a pleasant surprise to enjoy it so much.
