Critic Reviews
-
Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com
An intriguing, visually stunning black-and-white neo noir, set in postWWII Europe.
-
Jay Antani, Cinema Writer
Beautiful, brilliant, hallucinatory filmmaking
-
Christopher Long, Movie Metropolis
The highly stylized film keeps viewers at an emotional distance, but it establishes a consistent mood and a rhythm as steady as the click-clack of a train rolling along the track.
-
James Kendrick, Q Network Film Desk
For all its technical and aesthetic brilliance, it remains a rather cold and distant film, one that is easy to appreciate but difficult to love.
-
Bill Weber, Slant Magazine
The future Dogme 95 king's last work of crafty artifice: less than meets the eye.
