Our take

A breakout film for Paolo Sorrentino, this stylish thriller begins with a meticulous stillness that gradually ruptures into a whirlwind of violence and secrets. Projecting pure sophisticated suavity, Toni Servillo masterfully commands this enigmatic character story of midlife yearning and regrets.
