My most anticipated film this year!
The movie spoke a language of "SQAUR". Just kidding.
Tyrannosaur is the monster of the heart and mind, that creature that halts any progression of grief and locks you into the emotions of sadness, depression and grief. Tyrannosaur and the Secret Garden explained all the emotions I went through having both my grandparents pass in the same year. It showed me that there really is a monster that keeps you from moving on. "CAPTURED - PRISONER"
It makes you believe you don't know the person you've lost, catching you so much up in the grieving process you forget... they have become distant, until that very end farewell. The very moment that you accept their death and it feels like they are happy to move on accepting it themselves.
Act 1: Joey (Ed) and Steve (Grant) compel a story just through the words that Ed speaks "and they all die". Man this got me good! That one friend who try's to cheer you up, avoiding the subject of death and BOOM ends up dropping the Death bomb. 😓
Act 2: When Jude (Hop), India (Lioness), Alfie (Angler), Lamissah (Rhi), Mag & Pie (Corey and Cole) came to capture Grant it flipped all the emotions in act 1 around.
It was exactly the emotions you feel when you have a dream about those you have lost, it feels so real and you don't know it's a dream.
The initiation of Grant was by far the funniest montage to date! I loved the little clips that spliced together making it ever so funny... drawing you completely out of the sadness of act 1.
He's stuck in the cage still and 'can't escape'.
Act 3: The moment he went into the tent I knew, I just had the feeling this was his realisation and his turning point. He knew what he had to do to kill the monster but he didn't believe.
The film plays on the factors or reality and fantasy, the cage Grant is trapped in seems impossible for him to escape until Hop ends up caged with him.
This gives Grant the push and strength he needs to break free and the fact that the cage was so light and flimsy shows he could have done it anytime but he was scared and didn't accept anyone to help him.
Act 4: Let's just take a moment to appreciate the beauty of this film. The colours, costumes, sets and props almost all handmade.
Even the funereal scene. STUNNING, this was where I cried. That moment you are on the way to a funeral not crying much at all to come face to face with a coffin and break down. It made me cry a lot.
Those fine details are what make Joey and his team at Digital Heart one of my favourites.
Well done to everyone it was an amazing movie and well deserving of all the views it will entail!
