The acting seems flat *spoilers I guess*


I noticed this when Dwight pops up at his sister's house after not seeing her for however long? And she doesn't even look or feel surprised to see him, not like you'd be if you somehow ran into your sibling suddenly while you were going to work.

Also when he takes the Wade family car and then we realize the half-brother was still in the car the whole time, Dwight tells him that he killed Wade because Wade killed his parents (again, with no expression) and his half-brother just quietly replies "I don't think he did" while running off. No expression.

It gave me awkward The Lobster vibes, was this intentional? Or were the actors not given any direction at all lmao
