Es una propuesta arriesgada y refrescante de Maggie Gyllenhaal, con una historia caótica y apasionada que juega con varias ideas, entre ellas un romance con tintes góticos, pero que no termina de definirse del todo. Visualmente hermosa y con actuaciones fantásticas de Jessie Buckley y Christian Bale. Buckley continúa sorprendiéndome con una interpretación verdaderamente hipnótica. Me encanta que los estudios estén apostando por propuestas originales como esta. Ojalá continúen haciéndolo.

I expected a lot more from this film, especially knowing how talented Jessie Buckley is. I really appreciate how bold and unconventional it is though — the mix of gothic horror, romance, musical elements, and chaos gives it a very distinct personality. The performances are excellent, and visually it has some incredible moments. However, I feel like it tried to cover too many ideas at once without fully developing any of them. Themes like identity, obsession, rejection, and loneliness had so much potential, but the film never connected with me as deeply as I wanted it to.
A strange but ultimately endearing and engrossing film. Bale delivers as always and Jessie Buckley is quickly establishing herself as one of the best actresses of the generation.
