The police station scene was so fucking painfully real. His performance there fucked me up when I first saw it.

I watched it on a plane. It was a bad idea. Michelle Williams man. I sobbed, like uncontrollably. Not awesome at altitude.

The "confrontation" between Michelle Williams and Casey Affleck near the end of this movie, fuck me. Williams is a 10/10 in that scene, Casey goes to another plane. Their pain hits you like a truck.

For me personally it was the most gripping and emotional performance I've seen in my lifetime. Happy it got the recognition it deserves at the Oscars

Oh man, so did I. There was a lot of lip biting and staring out the window!

Yeah. The like 1 frame of shock and disappointment on his face when the gun didn't go off messed me up.

The delivery of a single word, "PLEASE!" was enough to emotionally scar me. If you've seen the film, you know what I'm talking about.
