How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A razor-sharp portrait of ambition and manipulation in the Broadway theater world, where a seemingly innocent young woman systematically dismantles the life of her idol through calculated charm and deception. It's a sleek, witty psychological thriller that revels in the performance of performance itself.
