I finally had an opportunity to go and see this last night. I found it absorbing and fascinating, but utterly disturbing. It has been a difficult one to shake off for me so far. Both Robbie and Janney were terrific, and I didn't know about the story and couldn't recall all the media ballyhoo at the time.
I loved the semi-documentary and occasional 4th wall style\presentation. I thought the direction was awesome and I felt dirty after it was over, or like I had just been sledgehammered. It was like seeing the pain, but feeling numb to it, due to be being a voyeur from the comfort of the theatre arm chair. It was a physically and emotionally draining experience, which not many movies leave that impact on me.
This was more deserving of a BP nom over the bland and over-hyped nothing Lady Bird.
