A lazy Saturday is the rare occasion where you have enough time to watch something properly, no rushing, no half-attention, just a film doing what films are supposed to do. The dramas designed for catharsis earn it by being honest, no manipulative scoring, no cheap shortcuts, just a story that builds until it has to give way.
