How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A pre-code psychological unraveling where a ventriloquist's wooden dummy becomes both his refuge and his unmaking. Watching Gabbo's grip on reality slip is both mesmerizing and deeply uncomfortable.
