The Banshees of Inisherin 2022

[HBO Max] On the other side of the island of Inisherin, a civil war between the Irish is taking place: "It was easier when we were all fighting the English," says the violent and abusive policeman. But on the island this conflict is represented through a melancholic story about the end of a friendship that is perfectly performed, a fable that unfolds at a leisurely pace, stopping at landscapes and music, and establishing a parallel between the complex relationships between humans and the sincere relationships between men and animals. It is a new success from director Martin McDonagh, a simple story from which you cannot take your eyes off, a look at the "slow passage of time" with the sympathy and restlessness that his characters give off. And certainly all the actors are fine, but again you have to wonder if Barry Keoghan is the best actor of his generation.
