    ★★½

    Entertaining historical (ly inaccurate) spectacle. A smidge better than Black Hawk Down or something like that. Good acting

    ★★★★

    Been meditating on this for a few days hoping to write some hooey but with increasing schoolwork &c. I figured I’ll just blurb

    On the Silver Globe skirted any and all expectations by a country mile. Great triumph for art over its censorial authority. Those first-person narrated cuts are super effective on both the allegorical and political levels however much they may jar the overall flow.

    First Żuławski experience and what struck me the most, even more than those wonderful costumes and unique camerawork, was of course the dialogue. I love how unapologetically first-year humanities undergrad it is 👏 looking forward to Possession!
