just watched eddington. i'll post my remarks before looking up what it was that i actually watched. i guess it's a movie in two halves, the first half joaquim phoenix and pedro pascal are quarelling during covid times in small town new mexico, the former as sheriff, the latter mayor. jp an anti masker, married to emma stone (err....) who used to go out with pp. due to covid stone's mom is living with them. stone is a semi broken person, the mother a conspiracy theorist.
lets just say phoenix gets fed up with pascal. in the second half of the movie there is shooting and chaos. i found it a bit difficult to really understand what kind of point the movie was trying to make, if any, but i typically enjoy jp's performances and the same applies here.
7/10 despite not really getting it. i will now go and read up to try to work it out.
