Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Tailor-made for anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead and anyone who loves a strong drama. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something. Shelve it next to Following.
- The mood
- Tense.
- The pace
- Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 35 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1955: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
Ivón, a chorus girl, Hugo, a failed writer, and Carlos, Hugo's young son, arrive at a seaside hotel on a stormy night.
