Here's a solid drama with some damn good acting. the plot concerns a famous rockstar (Tilda Swinton) and her partner (Matthias Schoenarts) who are unexpectedly visited by an old friend (Ralph Fiennes) and his daughter (Dakota Johnson) whilst on vacation. Ralph Fiennes is on top form here (compelte with full frontal nudity) with a performance that is funny and very engaging, and the rest of the cast are also very strong, playing interesting characters that have their own little traits. The films set on the Italian island of Pantelleria which looks really beautiful and there's some good cinematography though there are a few weird bits that feels little jarring and experimental but still very interesting.
The drama itself unfolds really nicely too we get a sense of frustration building up in every character as the films goes on, creating a very compelling watch. there were actually a few moments that I thought it was gonna end (and could have), but when it finally did it was very fitting for the movie.
Overall this is a very solid little movie with some good drama and great acting and certainly worth a watch.
