    Female Perversions

    ★★★★

    Saw a special 4K restoration screening followed by an amazing Q&A with the director. Tilda is incredible, per usual, but what I really loved were all the themes around female identity that were explored - sexuality, ambition, family dynamics, power. This movie may be 30 years old, but it still resonates in many ways with todays culture, for better or worse.

    As always with Luca movies, it was beautifully shot and the music was great. It could have benefited from more character development or maybe some narration - anything to understand the characters and their motives a bit more.

    A great representation of the complicated and special relationship between sisters, all things considered
