Look at me

About This Movie

So, 'Look at me' from 2021 dives into the psyche of a young woman, Julie, who's grappling with some heavy stuff. The film's shot almost like a diary, very raw, letting us into her world through her daily video logs. There's this haunting atmosphere, underscored by a sense of isolation that’s palpable. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of reflection, which can feel a bit slow to some, but it really drives the theme of searching for connection. The performances, especially from the lead, carry a weight that’s hard to shake off. There's a nice mix of practical effects, like grainy home video aesthetics, which really pulls you into her struggle. Definitely a unique take on mental health through a very personal lens.
