Christine
Directed by Antonio Campos2h 3m2016
In 1974, television reporter Christine Chubbuck struggles with depression and professional frustrations as she tries to advance her career.
Our read: Christine (2016) reads as a heavy, measured, grounded drama entry — measured in intensity, intimate in scope, measured in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
Heavy, measured, measured drama, grounded in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, measured.
