A deeply personal film from Alfonso Cuarón and a cinematic tour de force. Despite the fact that most of the film covers everyday life, through the lens of Cuarón it feels intimate and moving. The camera, the wide shots, the tracking - it is one of the most beautifully-shot films I can remember. Yalitza Aparicio is perfectly cast as we experience life through her eyes. The pace is slow and deliberate, but still provides plenty of emotional punch. I'm not going to claim it my personal favorite, but from a technical standpoint it is pretty much flawless and for Cuarón, a definite high point in an already-impressive career.
