How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A morally murky 1950s noir where a disgraced detective becomes ensnared in a murder investigation that pulls him deeper into shadowy dealings. The film is a slow-burn exploration of how easily circumstance and desire can make anyone look guilty.
