How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A woman from the nightclub circuit enters an insular, judgmental world through marriage, triggering simmering resentments and class friction that threaten to unravel the household from within. A claustrophobic portrait of family dysfunction dressed in 1930s glamour.
