The CinePearl Take
Jonathan Majors delivers a magnetic supporting turn, grounding the narrative with quiet intensity. Joe Talbot’s direction balances melancholy and hope, allowing the city itself to become a character through sweeping cinematography. While the pacing can feel languid, it mirrors the protagonists’ yearning, making the emotional payoff all the more resonant.
