I think you make a good case. I haven't returned to The Village in a long time but I've thought about it recently. This may spur me to finally fire up the ol' DVD.
I saw this movie as a kid and it absolutely blew my mind! Nostalgia certainly colors my perception of the movie, but I totally agree with all of your points here. It’s a beautiful film, well-acted, well-written, and the soundtrack is chilling. Highly underrated.
My other favorite thing about this movie is that the cinematography is done by Roger Deakins which is INSANE to me haha. Incredible movie, great writeup.

Definitely worth the watch!

Thanks man! Can't believe I didn't mention that in the writeup tbh. Of course it looks good with Deakins behind the camera.
