Mudbound

...is at once sweeping epic and granular character study.

Just about everyone in director/co-writer Dee Rees’ searing and brutally effective 1940s period piece “Mudbound” is living in some version of Hell on Earth.

...a film set during a tumultuous period in history that has worrying parallels with current events. Something we’ve sadly heard too often in recent months.

The film invites us to observe its characters, to hear their inner voices, to see what they see and to challenge our own preconceived notions about race and gender.

’Mudbound’ er en klassisk og forudsigelig fortælling om sydstaterne i post-krigsårene, som instruktøren puster nyt liv i ved konstant at skifte synspunkt og lade alle komme til orde igennem indre monologer...

Utöver det viktiga budskapet filmen förmedlar är den också riktigt välspelad och snygg. Det vill säga om blod, svett och lera kan vara snyggt.
