More Wildly overlooked. This feels like the summation of Spielberg getting politically scratchy circa 2000 and following through on his anxiety about the othering of people's humanity by way of political psychosis. I believe Hanks has only played a lawyer twice — Philadelphia and here — and in both cases he is a shrewd moral pragmatist trapped in a hypocritical quagmire. Modern day Jimmy Stewart, indeed.

More There are several formal moves in this — transitions, superimpositions, camera placement — that I’ve never seen before. No one doing it like Park.

Deeply felt isn't enough; great craft isn't enough. But deeply felt great craft, not sure there's much better. As with all special movies, it's about how we're all alone in the world, except for the precious time when we're not.
