A serendipitous screen debut for Tilda Swinton, Derek Jarman’s sumptuous biopic breaks all the rules, marking the blossoming of a creative partnership between the two artists. Portraying an iron-willed object of desire, the young actress toys with gender stereotypes, giving us a muse who gazes back.
