Our take
Taxi drivers, gigolos, and priests are all part of Paul Schrader’s cinema of loneliness, masterfully expanded upon in this tale of a gay male escort. Against a suited backdrop of Washington politics, Woody Harrelson delivers a delicate and fragile performance that grows deeper at every turn.
