Film Reviews by RW

I found this a thought provoking and unusual film about mother daughter relationships. It explores the impact of grief when Marions mother dies, and her depression on her daughter Nelly. There's a magical twist in the film which is incredibly powerful and touching.

Who couldnt have seen the final scenes in Breaking Bad, and not wondered what might happen to Jesse? El Camino gives you the next few days of Jesse's life following his escape. His friends, Skinny Pete and Badger, do what good friends do - take him in, let him rest, persuade him tactfully to take a shower (even though that provokes a terrible flashback moment for Jesse) and see him on to the next stage of his journey. The performances are excellent throughout and the photography underlines the emptiness and deadness at the heart of America's broken dreams.
