How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A bleak portrait of suburban dysfunction in 1973 where repressed desires and marital fractures simmer beneath the surface of a respectable family, culminating in catastrophe. The film observes its characters' quiet desperation with cold precision, using an ice storm as both literal event and metaphor for emotional devastation.
