The Oregonian (2011)
This is a great movie
10 years ago I looked for a movie with the worst rating to watch and ended up watching this one.
It is a great movie which I still come back to, in my thoughts. It is disturbing enough that I don´t want to rewatch it, but it was impactful enough over the only 2 times i watched it through, that I remember the plot and what it was about.
It can seem like a random collection of clips morphed together into a movie. It is a movie though, there is a script and there is a story. There definitely is a story, but you will need some time to figure it out. Took me a year to see it.
This movie includes a lot of atmospheric themes, which make you feel uncomfortable. It can look like it is the sole purpose of the whole movie and maybe it is. It does it pretty well - create the specific uncomfortable emotions that people feel in very weird unwelcoming situations. I think it´s quite an art and requires a lot of skill. I would recommend this movie to anyone who has the stamina and vitality to watch through an emotional ride of sounds and visuals that in the end can feel very unsatisfying. Took me at least, a bit of thinking about what it all means. I am glad I watched it though and 10 years later I am still considering if I feel strong enough to watch it again. It´s a lot!
