How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A biblical drama that unfolds with the weight of Greek tragedy, tracing how passion and power corrupt a great king and devastate those around him. It's a sumptuous period piece that treats sin and its consequences with earnest, almost religious solemnity.
