Empire of the Light (2022)
Empire of the Ligh t directed by Sam Mende s is a brilliant film about the cinema and what it means to us. It's a love story of sorts between us the audience and what the cinema does for us & it is a love story between the two characters both struggling with their own problems. I have to say here that I adore this film, and I am biased about it. Its a very emotional film about how the cinema transports us out of our reality, and the way it magically does so. Olivia Colman as Hilary is amazing and she should be nominated for another Oscar. Ms Colman is brilliant as a women with mental health issues brought on by her past. She shines as she descends into a schizophrenic break and we cannot feel but sympathy for her character as she descends into depression & her delusions. ...
