Where to Watch H Is for Hawk
- Watch ManzMarch 21, 2026Weird movie. It's a movie about death and depression, where nothing happens. The most exciting bits were the hawk hunting its prey.
- Kevin WardFebruary 28, 2026A portrait of depression anchored by the bond between a woman and her hawk. I was most compelled by the hawking itself, something I don’t think I’ve ever seen depicted with this much care on screen. The bond between Foy’s character and Mabel feels genuine and the bird is mesmerizing to watch. Outside of that, the film drifts without much to hold onto. As a consequence of watching this, I’ve definitely watched enough falconry youtube videos afterwards now that my algorithm is forever altered.
