Violet

About This Movie

So, 'Violet' dives into some pretty intense territory for a drama, right? It’s this layered exploration of intimacy and boundaries. You’ve got Dan, just 12, grappling with scoliosis, and he's searching for something deeper with Anna, who’s not much older but carries her own weight. The tension between them builds slowly, almost uncomfortably, which I found really engaging. The performances are raw; you can feel the awkwardness and the need for affection. The atmosphere is heavy, almost claustrophobic at times, underscored by Dan's mother's absence due to her job. It makes you think about the complexities of human connection—definitely not a light watch but worth considering for the themes it handles.
