This film absolutely blew me away with its production design. The costuming and the cinematography are also a feast for the eyes. While I struggle with some of the film's script and pacing, it has an engaging story that inspires equally interesting conversation. I find people have such diverging opinions about this film, and hearing these different takeaways has only made me appreciate watching it more.
