Beautifully shot, with a solid plot, but filled with remorselessly unpleasant characters (save for poor Bobby). I can sympathize with desperate people, but the fact remains that every good thing which happens to our protagonists happens at the expense of someone else. They earn money by hustling and stealing; they avoid trouble by lying and deflecting; they have fun by bothering the people around them (or destroying their property). In comedies, we know that some good outcome will appear out of chaos and destruction; in The Florida Project, I just wanted to movie to end sooner so fewer people would have to get hurt.
