Farewell to Autumn

About This Movie

So, 'Farewell to Autumn' is this intriguing dive into the decay of aristocracy, directed by Mariusz Treliński. It weaves a tapestry of excess—think opulent parties, but with a dark twist. The pacing feels languid, almost voyeuristic, as it explores themes of decadence, homosexuality, and infidelity, all set against a backdrop of alcoholism and drug use. The performances are raw and layered, capturing the emotional turmoil of its characters beautifully. You can almost feel the weight of their riches dragging them down. The practical effects are minimal, but they create a haunting atmosphere that sticks with you. It’s a nuanced portrayal of a world in decline, with a vibe that lingers long after the credits roll.
