A solid effort that could have been great. Unfortunately, very often the wonderful performances by Moore and Redmayne are submerged by poor character development and a superficial handling of an otherwise very complex and disturbing plot.

Julianne Moore has a stellar role in this movie as the beautiful and decadent Barbara Baekeland. I enjoyed so much watching the distorted relationship between her and her son, Tony... Eddie Redmayne delivered it great! Beautiful sets and landscapes too. I was shocked to know this was in fact inspired by real life events and people!

Stuning and beauty. I really like the way the treated the history in the film. I did read the book and Its pretty much like the flim. I dont think any of the caracters were unsane but very confused and inside a mix of hard feelings.

Really disturbing story, well developed at the beginning, but not so well from the middle on: the insanity turns out too abruptly.

Gorgeous period designs. Unsettling incest sequences. I feel like it could have been better crafted- while understandable, Tony's insanity seemed sudden.

Fascinating film to watch, especially in the way Tom Kalin recreates the late 60s in this movie, but you really don't get much sense of what led young Tony to kill his mother other than the dog collar being so important to him that he could never forgive her for trying to hide it from him.

The film fails to meet the expectations set by its ambition. It does however remains a most poignant film, with haunting performances by Moore and Redmayne. Twisted aesthetics - the plot, the photography, the music.

So gorgeous that it manages to make incest sexy. Almost. No, no, it's still pretty disturbing. But the movie is sexy. Figure that one out. It's great fun to watch Julianne and Eddie bite into each harrowing, almost hallucinatory scene. The whole thing comes off as a juicy Albee play that made scandalous love with an avant-garde fashion editorial and birthed a gay Lars von Trier. It's a bit of a bumpy ride.

Don't really know how I feel about this movie besides uneasiness..

It is just wonderful to see homosexuality depicted as a sexually deviant behaviour, often discovered in individuals with incestuous and homicidal tendencies. This story had the potential to explore so many interesting historical, social and psychological avenues yet the film-makers were set on candidly exposing the sordid details of the characters. A shame.
