A Tiger in Paradise

About This Movie

So, A Tiger in Paradise is quite the intriguing dive into José González’s psyche. It's got this surreal vibe, mixing dark humor with the stunning Swedish landscape, which really sets a unique tone. The pacing is deceptively calm at first, but it pulls you deeper into his thoughts and shadows, making you ponder along the way. The collaboration with Ruben Östlund’s usual crew adds an interesting layer of creativity and visual flair to the documentary. You can sense the genuine artistry in how they portray his music and the introspective themes. It feels more like an exploration than a straightforward documentary, which, in my book, makes it stand out among other music documentaries.
