I actually think Border might be your favourite out the bunch, really peculiar but very engrossing and entertaining. But I think almost all MUBI disc output has be strong as far as the films have been concerned.
Beginning is about 2 hours long. I thought it was going to be 160 minutes until I saw there was a q&a tacked on at the end.

*No Spoilers*

Watched Beginning earlier and for me it was like watching someone trying a bit too hard to make an arthouse film. Imo a bit pretentious and it also didn't help when it's supposedly set in a Jehovah's Witness community but was filled with inaccuracies. Why would a director want to set it in a specific community and then not be accurate in it's portrayal? Someone not familiar won't be bothered by that of course. Safe to say I won't be watching it again.
