Review of Cordelia

Cordelia (2019)
Another one of those one note films
4 June 2022
I just hate when filmmakers fixate on a premise and try to build an entire movie around it. This works best in half hour anthology series, like Alfred Hitchcock or Twilight Zone, because you know that there's going to be a simple and maybe surprising resolution, but to drag the story out for an hour and more with characters and subplots that are ultimately just filler is defeating the purpose of the original premise.

You can sit through this film and admire the acting and the sets and whatever else you choose, but you already know how this will end and when it does, you shouldn't be surprised at anything but the time you wasted getting there.
