'Waves' is the sort of intimate family drama that confirms filmmaker Trey Edward Shults is a major talent—and makes you glad to be alive, says Peter Travers. Our review

It’s something of a relief when the movie pivots at the halfway point and switches its attention to Tyler’s kid sister Emily , who is too reticent to let her feelings out in torrents. Still, the way the camera lingers on the young woman’s as she holds her face outside the window of a moving car suggests the need to clear the pain throbbing in her head.

You could argue that the white Schults can hardly claim to know the Williams’ world from the inside. Yetdraws you into its tidal flow, focusing on four characters whose stories the filmmaker tells through sensory, nonlinear moments, all of them dipping between joy and tragedy. A techno score from Atticus Ross and Trent Reznor includes songs from Kendrick Lamar, Frank Ocean and Radiohead in the mix and mirrors the tumultuous passions that spill out on screen.
