If you’re going to watch Blink Twice, watch it twice

There’s definitely things to critique about this movie (some elements of the story didn’t make sense to me), but it’s so good. The cinematography and directing were fantastic, and the dialogue/shot hints that guide the story were so good. Highly recommend this movie, but pls don’t read further if you haven’t watched yet.
Second time watching I noticed so many more small things that fed the rising action, like these:

-Frida says she can’t just forget shit when talking to Jess about her ex
-Frida says she has an excellent memory
Stace says “nice to see you” to Frida at the end of the gala
-The cleaning lady leaves her bucket after Frida initially gets out of the shower, which she trips on later on when going for the knife behind the mirror
-While Frida and Slater are walking, in every shot that’s just Frida you can see the security guard walking along the edge
-When Jess says “kool aid on the cult robe” when Frida spills on her dress
-There’s always a gap between who has the lighter last overnight but not during the day, as it gets passed around when the girls cannot remember anything
– The way Jess keeps repeating “what do I gotta write my name on this fucking thing”
– Sarah says when she first arrives, and again once she kills Stan, that “this place sucks”

Little cues and dialogues like these are what make such a good psych thriller imo, and Zöe aced it.
