Where to Watch Late Shift
- Kevin WardJanuary 20, 2026Give Leonie Benesch all of the incredibly high-stress, under-appreciated jobs, cinematic universe. She is so good here, conveying the complete range of emotion required from a single shift, empathy, compassion, patience, frustration, guilt. She occupies virtually every frame of this film and it is one of the most compelling (and most stressful) watches of the year. I would absolutely crumble in this kind of setting. I don’t know how people do it. I’m rooting for a Benesch Oscar someday.
