Polanksi thought apartment living was so scary that he went back to that well three times. Maybe apartments are scarier in Europe. Also like reading Ebert's review where he decided to just write about the entire ending. Like, spoiler alert, am I right? Isabelle Adjani is in this for, maybe, ten minutes, but she is so spellbinding.

Under Quarantine Film Reviews #109: I find it more terrifying that Polanski was more into his drag persona than Isabelle Adjani. He was mad creepy though, I'll give him that.

With all the excellent reviews this movie has gotten I was expecting a lot more. It's a good movie, entertaining at least, but I can hardly see what all the fuss is about. Perhaps it was groundbreaking at the time it was made?

I love the details like how at the beginning the concierge twice nudges Trelkovsky forward while they're looking out the window. Also, the first night he fully dresses as Simone, the camera pans to the window across the street while ominous music plays, but nobody is standing there; he's satisfied his neighbors for the time being so they don't bother him. Ebert was dead wrong giving this only one star

Dysphoria, claustrophobia. Mental and spatial, if there even is any distinction. On what terms do mind and body coalesce, and how much of a person's identity is dictated by their environment? There is some sort of strange cyclical, cosmic, omnipresent spacetime at work here, just as in Don't Look Now, The Shining, Twin Peaks. The sound mix is sloppy and a few of the performances are stiff, but this film pays off in surreal spades of imagery and mood.

Not a horror movie in the traditional sense, so don't go in expecting that. With its fragmented, ambiguous sense of logic, this story works best as an allegory of cultural xenophobia set in the microcosm of a run-down apartment complex. The final twist doesn't bear logical scrutiny but inspires an acceptable amount of existential dread.

This is Kafkaesque, apparently - I should really read one of his books so I can properly understand what this means. I also hadn't realised that this was part of a loose trilogy; I liked the other two. My general ignorance notwithstanding, I really liked this. It perhaps works best as a surreal nightmare, filled with paranoia, isolation, weirdos and mental instability. I found it rather creepy and unnerving. It was really well made, as you might expect. Needed more Adjani, though. Worthy.
