Prisoners 2013
This film numbed me to the core. What great performances; Jake Gyllenhaal was brilliant. I had to look away from the screen a couple of times during Hugh Jackman's emotionally charged scenes. How utterly disturbing--and the ending? Wow. I don't think this holds much re-watch value for me (unlike some other thrillers in the same vein as this one), but it was definitely impactful. I'm going to remember this for quite a long time, I think. Beautiful cinematography, too. Always a plus. Villenueve is a very talented director. I can't wait to see what he does in the future.
