A somewhat strange picture, this, and the story that lies underneath is rather special, to say the least. As a result, it is rather believable, because yes, such things really do happen.

Edgerton gets along well with his unsympathetic and repulsive character, although the haircut could have been done a bit more in my opinion - compare it to Eddie Marsan's in The Exception (2016). But perhaps that had already given away too much, and this more subtle variant is better.

Weaver is less present than I had hoped, and has an at least as complex character that, due to a lack of space, does not really get the depth I had hoped for - that still leaves some hunger. And Swindell comes off as completely bad in comparison with her somewhat too simple and thin character, although she does it well.

The ending also seems a bit easygoing to me, a little more spice would have been nice. Nevertheless, it is certainly a memorable film that rises well above average and forgettable viewing food.

Nice film about a gardener who works for a rich woman. A fairly interesting and well-developed main character. The rest of the characters are less well developed and so is the love relationship that arises. Good acting from the entire cast and in terms of tone and execution certainly comparable to the two previous films by Paul Schrader.
