though i'm unsure how to take angie's ending. did she walk out onto the ice to die from exposure? did She (whoever She may be) decide She wanted her (remember when the elder was talking she said something about "we thought that if She didn't want them, they'd at least have their clothes even if they were half frozen to death")? she shows up in the last scene, but they say that nobody really leaves Ennis? poignant, but i felt like her character had more to live for so her just joining her sister out on the ice left a bad taste in my mouth, but maybe that's not the point? i guess that part is lost on my dumb white ass.
indeed, I think I'd have to rewatch the last 20 mins a few times to try to unravel that a bit more

it's not exactly clear in my memory when Navarro 'disappears'
I don't recall her talking to anyone beside Danvers and the women after the blizzard, so maybe she was already a spirit at that point? maybe I'm not remembering correctly though
The magical realism was a really good fit. It still leaves some mystical bits unanswered which strikes a nice balance for me.

The scene of the women slowly gathering together in solidarity was really well done.
yea that part was nice

but in that scene there was also the latent implication that "we'll fucking kill you pigs too if you push this" which was also dope

or is that just another story they tell?

that was just the story they fed to the cough lol feds at the end. in all honesty she's probably hiding out (with qavvik maybe <3 <3)
ya, it's actually compelling enough to warrant a careful rewatch, and that's pretty impressive
def needs a rewatch. i think i'll take a couple weeks at least and then dig back into it.
