Oda’s pacing is deliberate, and the cinematography from Wyatt Garfield is appropriately otherworldly. But it’s the performances that must transcend the staginess of Nine Days’s conceit, and the Yale-trained Duke especially delivers, right down to the film’s exuberant, if bittersweet, final shot.

He’s taking some big swings at mighty heavy concepts here, with an originality of voice and attention to craft that is welcome any day. Read more
