The Whale is finally available for streaming; it's a new movie by Darren Aronofsky, the director of Mother! and Requiem for a Dream.
I've been looking forward to this movie for a while. I knew I was going to love it, but it's even better than expected. Within the first fifteen minutes I could intuit that Aronofsky was setting up a powerful climax, and the ending did make me sob. This is the kind of movie I love: it's intimate, it's sublime, and it's about raw humanity.
