Mud: a beautiful, quiet, slow-burning film. It takes its time to let the characters breathe and develop, the world their live in present itself and the touching, strong story grow. The whole cast is also solid in an unspectacular way (I mean this in a good way: there are no showboating scenes, just opportunities to develop the well-written characters), Matthew McConaughey being the stand-out. Visually, the film is non-intrusive.
