Stephen C @bob25009 07/04/2025 Successful horror movie in 1.75 hours. See more Melissa L @Agent99 06/08/2025 I have no idea why this is rated so highly. I read a list of good horror movies...and I am disappointed. It's so dry. It's not a "horror" movie. It should be classified as a thriller. So, yeah, it's a waste of time.

One of the most accurate depictions of a person’s descent into psychosis. Catherine Deneuve delivers an impressive performance. The impact is not in hysterics. We can see that this person cannot assess reality anymore. Putting a dead body in a bathtub or behind a sofa doesn’t render them invisible. Tubi has a nicely restored copy. See more thiago s @Thiagostone 01/12/2025 Filme bacaninha, o roteiro é mais ou menos, parece que o filme mostra uma garoto com medos de ser tocada, teve duas cenas cenas que ela mata dois caras um foi com uma moderada na cabeça várias vezes e o outro uma faquinha pequena. Eu nem sei se recomendo esse filme. See more Sarfaraz A @RT40602226 01/10/2025 Roman Polanski co-wrote and directed this psychological thriller. Catherine Deneuve plays the lead role. The film is said to be Polanski's debut English-language feature. The story is about Carol (Catherine Deneuve), who suffers from schizophrenia and lives with her older sister, whose married lover occasionally stays at their flat, which annoys Carol much. She dislikes seeing his toothbrush and razor in her bathroom glass. She is not interested in a young man who is madly in love with her and wishes to spend time with her. This solitude and dread cause her to experience hallucinations and spiral into madness. Carol is a quiet person, but not in the way that some people are. She is attentive to her elder sister, although she can be obstinate at times, such as when she does not want her sister's boyfriend to remain in their apartment, much alone use the shared toilet. Carol's sister definitely serves as an interim remedy to stop her fall into madness. Because as soon as her sister left for Italy to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa with her boyfriend, Carol began experiencing hallucinations and paranoia about certain individuals, particularly men. The notion that Carol's past is beginning to haunt her is distracting, because the past has always accompanied her. Catherine Deneuve delivers strong performance. This is meant to be the first film in Polanski's trilogy of apartment movies (Rosemary's Baby 1968 - The Tenant 1976). The cinematography in the film is typical of European-style movies. It is not boring, but not for those who want to see a happy conclusion. See more Read all reviews
