Standout Aspects

Acting

Comer's physicality — watch her hands, her stillness, her swallowed rage.

Direction

Marnie Dickens refuses the 'triumph' template. No easy catharsis.

Writing

The flashback structure weaponizes your own impatience against you.

Trivia

Cultural

Released the same year as Room, Thirteen got buried — but its refusal of Hollywood redemption arcs aged better.
