Thomasin Harcourt McKenzie gives a fantastic performance as a daughter who wants to move on and become independent instead of living of the fat of the land with her father. If you enjoyed The Survivalist, Captain Fantastic, Hunt for the Wilderpeople you may like this. There are a few subtle moments that reminded me of Tender Mercies too. It's a very tender film, especially how the couple interact with nature. The focus of the film is on the father daughter relationship arc, and how it changes, and this is key to the films strength as it focuses on the emotion of the strive for independence instead of the chase from the authorities. A really beautiful film. 8/10

Haunted by the ghosts of his past, a father lives with his daughter in the woods. Things become complicated when the girl becomes a teen and is curious to meet the world. A slow paced movie with a well told story and an outstanding performance by Thomasin McKenzie! Do not expect any action, as you'll be disappointed.

A slow burn but man it's worth it. A beautiful film that really hits you where it hurts. Fosters skills are already solidified but McKenzie I'd only seen in Jojo Rabbit previously but this is an absolutely stellar performance. One to watch out for in the future for sure.

Raw and methodical, Leave No Trace is an unapologetic look at mental health, one that should not be overlooked due to it's slow pacing and somewhat heavy metaphors. Thomasin and Ben both say so much with so little, truly great performances from both. A slow burn, but definitely worth the investment.

Skimming other reviews of this film elsewhere, I've seen accusations of slow pacing, bad writing, unrealistic characters… For every reviewer who found the movie amazing, it's almost like that had to be balanced out by someone else who couldn't stand it.

This had been on my list for a while, but after being impressed by Thomasin McKenzie in Last Night in Soho, I decided to finally give it a watch.

Overall, I was impressed. The acting was generally strong, but what I enjoyed most about this movie were the small details. Whether it was wilderness More

Leave No Trace treats us to marvellous unromanticised scenes of father and daughter, Will and Tom’s, life in the woods and this gives you a strong base to the story and to the father, daughter dynamic. Skilfully weaving into the narrative, post-traumatic-stress, unyielding family loyalty and the n More
