6/10
The bored and the beautiful
25 April 2023
Fantastically shot and definitely ahead of its time when it comes to its technical qualities (well, the visuals more so than the sound, but you get used to the kind of muffled dialogue pretty quickly). You could tell me it was from the 1950s, maybe even the early 1960s, and I'd believe you.

But it was also so boring and left me incredibly cold. It's like a 9/10 for how it's made, but a 3/10 for how it's written and paced. I'm surprised and jealous that other people seem to get so much out of it. That may sound shallow, or it may seem unfair to say those things, but to me, it's a beautiful and impressive snooze of a film.
