» [1] Moonlight. The life of Chiron, the young man who grows up in three distinct chapters in Barry Jenkins' masterpiece, is hard and full of pain. And yet Moonlight is so abundant with transcendent moments of grace and lyrical splendour. In the film's blue-tinged darkness shines a tortured soul, one of the most intimately and fully realised ones I can remember encountering in a movie.
