So, 'Insignia' from 2006 is this introspective dive into the world of a graphic designer, Paul Andrews. He was once on top, but now he's grappling with shallow clients and the suffocating weight of lost creativity. The film's atmosphere is heavy, almost claustrophobic, as he spirals deeper into obsession. It’s not just about design; it explores the struggle for artistic voice, which feels relatable for anyone who's ever felt stifled. The pacing is deliberate, letting the tension build as Paul’s descent becomes more pronounced. The performances, while understated, really pull you into his turmoil. There's a rawness to the practical effects that adds to the gritty feel of his journey, making it a unique watch for those interested in the darker sides of artistic ambition.
