Retrograde (2022)
Slyly intelligent and insightful film
22 May 2023 - 4 out of 4 users found this review helpful.
Retrograde reminded me of why I love independent cinema. Simple to the point of being minimalist, it relies on it's sharp writing and strong acting to keep the viewer invested in the story and characters. It also lacks any sort of pretense which lends credibility to the characters and their choices.
The lead actress is perfect for the role and doesn't overplay the part. A lot of what make for a good film these days is what it doesn't do, avoiding the usual movie tropes and cliches, which gives even more authenticity to the story.
Overall I'd highly recommend for viewers, especially those fans of unique independent films like ones from the 90's boom.
