Agree to disagree. I thought the quiet, understated storytelling was profoundly moving and a powerful embodiment of the kind of bonds people make in crisis. I don’t particularly want or need to be spoonfed backstory in a movie that’s all about forward motion and running against the clock. And I loved the little touches of...backstory hints, I guess. Like Cillian Murphy’s character wearing a wedding ring.

I didn't see any bonds formed in this movie. It was every man for himself.

And being told a story is now being called "spoonfed"? Instead of just bein called, I don't know, a plot?

There was a plot. Did you not watch the movie?

[feotakahari]

I haven’t seen this movie, but every time I’ve seen the word “spoonfed” used in relation to fiction, it’s been part of a take that seemed unnecessarily self-congratulatory. Like, the way you consume fiction is not “spoonfed” and is therefore good, but the way this other person consumes fiction is “spoonfed” and therefore bad.

[sparrow_lately]

Idk where you’re getting all that, but all I meant was that there was no natural place in “Dunkirk” for backstory, nor did I need any to care about the characters and what they were doing. A flashback or expositional conversation would have felt forced and been immersion breaking IMO.

It was about both the formation and breakdown of human bonds in a crisis.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree. It didn't need an overarching plot or anything like that, it was simply a vignette of a crisis situation and the people who came together to do what they could to help because that was the right thing to do.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, exactly. That was exactly what I wanted it to be and I really liked it.

[(Anonymous)]

Same. I found it very moving just for the sheer humanity of it all.

This.
