After seeing Monster 2003, I remember leaving the theater feeling gut-punched. After reading about the constant child abuse Aileen Wuornos suffered as a kid, it was hard reconciling the path her life took. Charlieze Theron did a masterful portrayal of a broken person grasping at straws for a bit of authentic compassion. It's no wonder Wuornos was such a mess.

Uncut Gems, Good Times and anything Safdie Brothers is gonna feel like a several hour long panic attack until the bitter end where nihilism feels like a relief.
Big Short is fun and funny the whole time but has that same zoom out effect when you sit with it and the credits roll.
