Memoir of a Snail Review • One of the Best Movies of 2024

Feature Underground

And here's my review of Memoir of a Snail, one of my favorite movies of the year so far. It features the voice talents of Sarah Snook, Eric Bana, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Jacki Weaver, and Nick Cave. It's directed by Adam Elliott, who hasn't directed a movie since 2009's critically acclaimed, Mary and Max. The life of Grace Pudel (Snook) is not a charmed one, but it's not an unusual one either. It's a volatile wave of bad decisions, strokes of luck, thunderbolts from God, and beautiful epiphanies. If the film has a hero, it's Grace's octogenarian friend, Pinky, who returns books by putting them in the trash can. Hunter discusses the movie's nuanced perspective of life, its Dickensian influence, and how perfectly it weaves together comedy and pathos. 0:00 Intro 2:07 Visuals & Tone 3:40 Life Sucks, and Also Doesn't 6:43 Nuanced Character Arch 8:19 Expert Writing & Dickens 9:57 Genuinely Funny 12:08 What's Up Next X: (https://twitter.com/Lanierhunt64) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/hunterlaniermoviereviews/) Tik Tok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@featureundergroun) Letterboxd: (https://letterboxd.com/HunterLanier/) #film #animation #foreignfilm
