Jeremy Saulnier & Macon Blair: Two of the Best Modern Filmmakers


From the beginning, everything these fellas have done has been quality. Their scripts and characters feel like they're drawn from the golden age of 1970s cinema. If they'd been working then I'm sure they would've done projects with Hoffman, Nicholson, McQueen, etc.

This one incorporates a variety of genres--mystery, war, revenge, and reconciliation. Blends them together perfectly. Was riveted from the first frame to the last.

If you like intense, thought-provoking films, you'll enjoy their work.
