[spoiler] If you've unspoilered this review and still haven't watched it, please, I know I say this about a lot of things, but please watch this blind. Please. Don't read ahead, stop reading all the one liner zingers on Letterboxd, just watch this as blind as you possibly can, it's fantastic and deserves a fresh, spoiler-free viewing.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]With that out of the way, what a movie. Emotionally heavy with clever time warp antics and a lovely, swampy aesthetic, Caddo Lake is the stand-out surprise of the year for me. I went in expecting Amazon Prime streaming fodder and came out thoroughly invested and pretty emotionally rocked. Frequency meets The Marsh Kings Daughter, for anyone that's watched the same, niche movies as me. Almost deserves a second viewing to pick up all the smaller details that will have assuredly washed over me on the initial viewing before I knew what was actually going down. I can almost guarantee that when I do, this review will probably jump another half a star. Fantastic stuff, Celine Held and Logan George, you have my attention. I'll be watching anything you create going forward, and I'll make time to go back to Topside the moment October is over.[/spoiler]
