VIBE
This film is a raw, unflinching descent into the psychological warfare of a marriage. It feels like being trapped in a pressure cooker of intellectual sparring, bitter humor, and emotional devastation. The atmosphere is suffocatingly tense, yet morbidly compelling, leaving you drained but profoundly affected.
