Took the spoiler to heart and skipped the Master Gardener review as it’s one of my more anticipated films of the year, more so to just watch Joel Edgerton in more stuff. He was fantastic in Underground Railroad, and really solid in The Gift and It Comes At Night. In my book, he’s one of the best working male actors in the business, and - though perhaps more unsung - up there with Kaluuya, Hardy, Shannon, and Fassbender as being, for the most part, absolutely captivating in whatever they’re in.

Got to see Master Gardener today. Loved it. It’s definitely of a piece with Schrader’s recent work. I even noted a visual rhyme between Narvel’s little shack and Pastor Toller’s church in First Reformed.
Is the Master Gardener a Constant Gardener?
As neither a Fast Freak or a Schraderhead, I have no interest in these movies but as always I enjoy reading your reviews anyway!
