The Whale (2022) ****
Almost every film review of this film describes it as a story of an overweight man and his problems. It is not. It's a story of an angry young girl lashing out at the entire world and coming to terms with a traumatic event from her childhood when she was eight and abandoned by a father whom she adored. One of Darren Aronofsky's best films.
