Up There (2019)
Heartfelt, elegant filmmaking
21 November 2019 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
This film tells an authentic, heartfelt story and features bold performances by the three main actors. It is beautifully shot in Michigan's UP, and (as the title suggests), you really do have a feeling while watching the film that you're somewhere else, somewhere remote.
As the drama mounts toward the end, there are scenes taking place in long, uncut stationary takes. The emotional momentum is able to really build in these actor-driven scenes, directly connecting you to the movie's emotional core.
Thumbs up!
