About This Movie

So, 'West' (2022) is this introspective drama that really digs into the human psyche. Gabe and Mary are this couple navigating their new life and the weight of expectations—Gabe's feeling the financial strain, and it gets pretty heavy. The film leans into that tension with a slow, deliberate pace that sort of pulls you in, making you feel the stress and desperation. There's a rawness to their performances that makes it feel real, especially how Gabe copes with his stress. The atmosphere is thick with unease, and you can sense the impending consequences of his choices looming over them. It’s a film that sticks with you, kind of haunting in its portrayal of desperation and the fragility of relationships.
