The only new film in the entire festival to be projected from a film print, it can also, consequently, lay claim to being one of the best-looking films among the festival's 2016 class. This is not to say that this is in any way a pleasant sight to behold; while a full spectrum of nostalgic golds, lipstick reds and eyeshadow blues shine vividly on the screen, Dolan's capacity to manufacture comprehensible compositions makes for an often claustrophobic, virtually impenetrable mise-en-scène.
