You Were Never Really Here (2017) ****
You Were Never Really Here (2017) is the story of Joe, a hired gun who suffers PTSD from both his disturbed childhood and his time in the military, on a mission to rescue an abused teenage girl.
Featuring an eclectic and textured score by Jonny Greenwood, a soundtrack full of 1940s tunes and moments of brutal violence, YWNRH is a hallucinatory and bleak film not without appropriately timed moments of humor.
Recommended for fans of Taxi Driver (1976) (my review here), Hardcore (1979), Léon (1994) and Drive (2011).
