7/10
Sights & sounds.
7 February 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Delightfully dark and creative scenes in a sound studio and a hotel room in which all the complications are getting more and more mixed up with the movie the crew is working on. The (voice) actresses are witches, the directors are their torturers. Among them, our stranger in a strange land, audio man Gilderoy who just came away from under the maternal wings (well...?), must find a way to assert himself...

It's true that the film becomes more and more repetitive, but personally, I just love this sort of premise and atmosphere. Toby Jones does a perfect job, but no complaints about the rest of the cast either. At some point the story seems to take a final turn into total insanity (or is Gilderoy finally becoming a man?), which is just fine by me... but fine, when expecting a lot more after the explosive debut 'Katalin Varga', is then just a little disappointing.

Still, a big 7 out of 10, and deserving of another viewing sometime soon.
