Just watched The Childhood of a Leader on Netflix, and...

[Mark Thibodeau]

...WOW. What a potent debut film by director, something Corbet. KILLER
flick, in every respect. Stylistically, thematically, with some minor
Pynchon resonance re: the sexual dysfunction (or is it?) at the heart of
fascism. Set in the aftermath of World War I, in the French countryside, as
an American diplomat works on helping to shepherd the Treaty of Versailles
to completion.

It's a must-see, in my opinion. Can't believe I missed it until now.
