Ari V Not terrible, but very repetitive and ultimately didn't seem like all that repetition ultimately led anywhere particularly interesting.

Many films I watch are quite complex and, in their own way, intense and it was nice to have something a bit freer and easier to watch, it was quite nice to relax into the scenes without having to really think and analyse. However, I am not without criticism for this film. At first it seemed like an 'erotica' and I wanted to mark it down simply for that reason because even when intelligently done there is a certain 'dirtiness' to the genre but the film grew on me too much becoming a relationship drama which is OK but then with a touch on the supernatural/surreal and even a gothic/horror edge with some of the images of that carved chest I felt like it was trying to be too many things and only touched on the surface of each and more importantly the plot suffered - it was a little thin. Evelyn is a screwed up pervert with little self control who loves Cynthia but also wants her to do her bidding, Cynthia wants to be a good lover but at the same time just wants a normal relationship with the woman she loves - I get it, I really don't need to be told again and again. Also, the characters were a little superficial - we didn't really know anything about them, who they were or where they came from; they were well acted at least. The film is full of symbolism and meaning but at times it feels a little forced and perhaps we could say something about how it is profound on the subject of sexuality but really arousal is arousal, there is nothing too deep about it - if a man just wants to get drunk does it really make much difference what he drinks to do so? That being said the film was nicely shot and very creative and does highlight briefly one or two relationship questions. A point of note is there were some extremely beautiful early autumn shots correlated by the whole film having a quiet and subdued feel; for me these autumn scenes were where there was the most intense feeling in the film mirrored as Cynthia enters into the early autumn years of her life but this was only touched on once really. I am going to give this film a five out of ten - although it was highly creative and original and did have some really beautiful shots and it was also easy and enjoyable to watch the plot and characters were a little thin and the film lacked the layered depth of the others, but overall very pleased to have seen it. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member I decided to watch this because it had good reviews. It never got going for me and that is a couple of hours of my life I will never get back, not sure what the point of it was. For me the star was the cat.
