Best of The Worst --- 11/17

Walk: AMC Kabuki (The Worst Person in the World)

Distance: 2 miles lope 🐎 & 3.5 miles walk 

There were times while watching The Worst Person in the World when Ciwt totally forgot she was looking at a movie.  Many scenes appear to happen in undramatic real time and there isn't a scintilla of artifice in any of the acting.  But of course the Worst Person... is drama - precisely directed and beautifully acted.  It is lighter than a feather, deeper than melancholy, humorous, enraging, engaging, unpredictable.  In other words, life like and very human.  Often set against The Scream's 😱flamingly unsettled Oslo sky.
