How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
Kubrick's dark comedy follows a deeply unreliable narrator spiraling into obsession, wrapping moral corruption in witty, brittle dialogue and a suffocating American landscape. It's uncomfortable by design, a masterwork that makes you complicit in watching something you know is fundamentally wrong.
