World Has Gone Haywire in Ari Aster’s Eddington
Digest more
The man behind the visual styles of "Seven" and "Amour" worked with writer/director Ari Aster for the first time on "Eddington."
A sheriff, a mayor and a virus walk into a bar in Ari Aster’s bleak and brain-sick satire that stars a dueling Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal and Emma Stone.
Eddington continues an unfortunate trend for Ari Aster, as audiences aren't resonating with his biting political satire.
Leading the film is Joaquin Phoenix who plays Joe Cross in Eddington. He’s the sheriff of a dying town and the kind of man who’d rather watch everything burn than admit he’s lost control. With pandemic paranoia, far-right delusions, and a god complex brewing under his dusty hat, Joe is both terrifying and tragic.
