Loved almost everything about it, though they kind of lost me with the horse-man stuff. Still NC!

But it's jarring in a way that works for me/compliments the tone of the movie.You'd have a horse cock! - great, creepy little line.Yup, my take as well.

Can't think of too many movies that turn resistance into a sexy quality.She's the most radical character and she chooses who she messes with when, based on her own needs and principles. She's way ahead of Cash politically and her politics are independent of how woke he is or what decisions he makes.
