Last Christmas is this intriguing little gem that dives deep into the complexities of family ties and the weight of responsibility. The film’s atmosphere is tense, but there’s also a haunting warmth as we follow this young boy navigating the chaos of Christmas Eve with his grandmother. The pacing is deliberate, allowing us to really feel the boy’s emotions and his determination to shield her from dark truths. The performances are striking; you can sense the boy's innocence and resolve, and the interactions with his grandmother are both touching and unsettling. It really stands out for its ability to blend drama with psychological elements, creating this almost claustrophobic sensation as the holiday backdrop contrasts with the underlying dread. Not something you'd expect from a typical holiday narrative, but that’s what makes it distinctive.
