Serge L Small film made for TV. Very well done. Charlotte is great at playing the disturbed. I felt a disturbance in the force. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/19/21 Full Review ronald h This movie tries to be Hitchcockian, and it fails. It's too self-consciously "clever," with lot of disjointed scene jumping and flashbacks. I've always found Charlotte Rampling to be pretentious. In much of this film, she walks around with a dazed half-smile on her face, like Amanda Burton did in the early seasons of Silent Witness. I suppose Rampling is trying to establish portent concerning her mental issues, which are revealed later in the story, but she's just annoying. We don't like her; therefore, we don't care about her. Gabriel Byrne is workmanlike in his role, although his insomnia and his obsession with Rampling's character are never explained. Good to see Eddie Marsan. He's a fine actor, but here, he's relegated to a secondary role. The soundtrack music is also annoying. Back to Hitchcock: He hired people like Bernard Hermann to write beautiful instrumental scores, rather than pop crap with insipid lyrics that sound like they came from from a 7th grade poetry class. Overall, this is a film that I will quickly forget because I didn't give a damn about the characters. Actually, I just finished it 15 minutes ago and, having written this review, I've already dismissed it from my head. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review william s The cast is good while the movie...not so much. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Terrible...was angry that I had wasted my night watching this. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member I watched this on Netflix, saying to myself, "How can you go wrong with the actors of such high caliber?" The setup, mood, mysterious storyline, and acting hooked me immediately. The direction was like early Nicholas Roeg (Don't Look Now) ins some ways. I thought the music was a big contribution to the overall ambient mood. The dramatic arc is a tease, which it has to be to sustain interest. We know we are going to see the puzzle pieces fitted in one by one until the denouement unravels the central release of tension. I rate the film three and one half stars because it is a little better than good and not quite great. There are no gimmicks to interfere with the artistry of the noir elements and no self-conscious formulaic plodding or plotting. If you are a viewer of a certain age, you'll not be sorry you spent your time on this one. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member A wonderful vehicle for Charlotte Rampling to prove a woman over 50 can be just as alluring as any 25 year old--An Intelligent & atmospheric film Noir with a complex and rare central female character...
