Our take

Critics in 1936 didn’t know what to make of Sacha Guitry’s wild formal experiments. 85 years later, what was once deemed “theatrical” now feels like a rush of dazzling cinematic invention. An effervescent mix of movement and monologue, we’ll still be playing catch-up with this one 85 years hence.
