The Violent Meaning of You Were Never Really Here

Lynne Ramsay's You Were Never Really Here isn't just a violent movie - it's a powerful piece on the struggle between blinding internal pain and it's violent externalizations, and the importance of purpose in dealing with trauma. Not only that, but it's also Joaquin Phoenix at his best - dive into the violence and uncover its depths. -- 00:00 Intro 00:44 Narrative 01:48 Typical movie violence 02:35 YWNRH's violence 03:11 Example: Nina's first rescue 05:21 Purpose and violence 07:48 Meaning 08:49 Thank you and suggest a movie! -- Music: Scott Buckley - Intervention // Computations in a Snowstorm // Hiraeth Lukrembo - Travel -- #A24 #JoaquinPhoenix #YouWhereNeverReallyHere
