Watched?
The story follows a devoutly religious family, exiled from their plantation and forced to carve out a life on the edge of a foreboding forest. From the outset, the film establishes its oppressive tone, with William (Ralph Ineson) and Katherine (Kate Dickie) struggling to maintain their piety in the face of mounting despair. But it’s their daughter Thomasin (Anya Taylor-Joy, in a breakout performance) who becomes the focal point of the family’s misfortune.

As crops fail, livestock vanish, and the infant Samuel disappears under sinister circumstances, the family’s faith curdles into suspicion, and Thomasin becomes the scapegoat for their collective sins.

Composer Mark Korven’s score, a dissonant symphony of wails and whispers, amplifies the film’s pervasive sense of doom, as if the very air is alive with malice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?…
