Hunger is an incredibly engrossing and eye-opening film. It is a completely unique experience, the cinematography and acting are top-notch. The way McQueen finds beauty in bleakness is outstanding, from the beating of the prisoners to see if they were hiding anything, the violent shaving and bathing of Bobby Sands and to the assassination of Prison Officer Lohan, but especially the hunger strike segment of the film, it just left me completely speechless, it hit so unbelievably hard. Superb!
