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 a calculating Southern woman whose web of manipulation begins to unravel when desire and jealousy get the better of her schemes. It's a tense, claustrophobic battle of wills wrapped in the poisonous civility of 1950s family drama.
