20 Best Movies Of 2020
13. I'm Thinking Of Ending Things
Charlie Kaufman's new Netflix drama is one of the most challenging movies of the year, but also one which yields great rewards for those prepared to pay attention and take the trip.
I'm Thinking of Ending Things is, like most of Kaufman's movies, a blacker-than-black comedy at its core, and one wrought with expert skill by its ensemble cast, especially a superb Jessie Buckley and fantastically downtrodden Jesse Plemons.
Some may balk at the almost wilful distance Kaufman places between the characters and the audience, and how much homework might be required to truly understand his vision - and that's totally fair enough - but for anyone keen to be dared by one of the boldest filmmakers working today, this is a wild treat.
