Brief thoughts on WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED (2024)


Mexico's entry for the Oscars has an older attorney who has been attempting to find out what happened to her brother in the protests of 1968 receiving some information that sends he down a rabbit hole. 

Dry black comedy/drama is a mannered affair. Shot in a moody black and white it has the feel of a film that is trying to be something more than a comedy. I was amused for the most part and I interested enough that I wanted to see where it was going. At the same time there was something about the presentation that didn't connect to me and I felt outside of the action.

At the same time there is enough here to recommend it because I think if nothing else, you'll be like me and like the film.
