Review of Crepuscule

Crepuscule (2009)
8/10
Rare: Dutch Underground
7 October 2021
In the 1960-s, American Kenneth Anger got famous with his 'Underground'-movies: a chain of impressions, making a film to be experienced -- and not a film to be understood.

'Underground' is very rare in the Dutch cinema, but with 'Crepuscule' we have an example. Set in the Amsterdam of 2009, well shot in black/white, and with a convincing lead by Nellie Benner -- although she uses quite a lot of nudity to make her point.

'Crépuscule' is French for twilight; the title indicates what this film is about. Its very thin story hardly contributes; its fine music surely makes this film work.
