5. The Sound of Sorrow in Nicole Midori Woodford's Last Shadow At First Light

  • A large majority of the sound in the film is diegetic, leaving us largely bereft of emotional cues, immersed in the silence of the aftermath.

  • Nicole Midori Woodford’s Last Shadow At First Light (2023) is a film shot after the fact. It is preoccupied with the aftermath, the ringing in your ears after the initial blast, the silence as the dust settles. From the moment the film begins, everything has already been lost to the waves.

  • I like how it's shot, and I like the performances, but there's a kind of standard international arthouse vibe to it that made it feel maybe a little less special than it could be. Maybe this is a specific hangup, but I've just seen a lot of arthouse debuts end up being road movies, as if there were no other metaphors for the path to healing from trauma than a long journey through some place, usually accompanied by a person who doesn't really want to be there. And I'll admit that maybe that's unfair, but it's really hard to shake
