Steven WeillFirst to rec“Just about the most beautiful movie ever shot to film. The immaculate composition, intricate set pieces, serene countryside all serve as a perfect foil to the lead's hollow trajectory.”

Londyn Harris“10/10 for the soundtrack alone. A truly epic tale of ambition, greed, glory, and reckoning.”

Rachel Jacobson“Saw this at Film Streams’ Ruth Sokolof Theater in Omaha. It was glorious on the big screen. Like a visit to the Met. Every frame a masterful painting. It really only works if you’re immersed. Some movies are ok on your laptop. Rarely can I watch anything on a phone. This is one of those you haven’t seen until you watch it properly— in a theater, with an audience.”
