How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gorgeously rendered portrait of two poets consumed by passionate, destructive love in 19th-century Paris. Watching it feels like witnessing genius and recklessness burning themselves out in real time.
