COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Hard to Watch this three hour B&W film submitted by Tassos on January 13, 2019, 8:55am I tried, but I finally could not stand it.
Read submitted by tropology on August 29, 2020, 7:46pm I recommend reading the novel first. Cinematography is amazing.
Dark movie submitted by aec on June 21, 2023, 7:50am The black and white cinematography was incredible. Otherwise, there seemed to be a disconnect between the film's summary and the film itself.
