This is the kind of movie that is mysterious, slow paced, and character driven. It can take you anywhere. The movie had excellent cinematographic quality and Eileen is played finely by Thomasin. The character of Hathaway is double edged as it introduces a black swan event in Eileen's life but it made the movie less atmospheric as such a recognizable face as Anne's is hard to split from your usually chick flick or romcom. It defined the plot which turned out appropriate but it had some weird attempts at humor which felt out of place (maybe like Eileen herself).
Nevertheless, the movie still grips you and you're always expecting something to coalesce. It was a bit predictable but it made for an interesting movie with an eighties type plot resembling the feel of Blue Velvet, as an example.
I give it a 7 but If it wasn't for the too recognizable faces it would probably have made for an 8 as the atmospheric quality would have been amped.
I loved the feel of the movie; it took me back. And all actors had worthy interpretations. It was quality cinema and it breaks with the empty and flashy hollywood movies often pushed for the masses. The camera shots were competently done.
It was well worth the watch. It's not for everyone though, but cinema lovers will be welcome home.
