The Wonder is an incredible film. Horrible but incredible. And Pugh again smashes it. The whole cast does.

2 things I’m grateful for in life.

1). That I’m not religious or born into religion.

2). That I was born when I was born.

Period dramas always freak me out, or anything pre turn of the century. F**k living like that. The Victorian era really scares me for some reason. It’s just so depressing, dark and backward. And this is a psychological period drama so it’s even more daunting. Great film though

Also the score is beautiful. Eerie but beautiful. The piece of music on the credits particularly. Wouldn’t mind getting it on vinyl

Pugh can't do no wrong lately. Saw the opening scene to this and it immediately gripped me. Hoping to watch it this weekend!
