My Love...

About This Movie

So, 'My Love...' is this unique piece from Sergei Potapov that really tugs at the heartstrings while also delving into darker territory. The film's pacing is deliberate, letting the tension simmer as it explores the complex relationship between two brothers, one of whom struggles with mental health issues. The atmosphere is thick with an unsettling sense of dread, typical of Asian cinema, yet it’s grounded in raw emotion. The performances are striking, particularly in how they convey a blend of love and despair. Practical effects are used sparingly but effectively, enhancing the horror elements without overshadowing the drama. It’s a layered film that stays with you, combining beauty and brutality in a way that feels distinctive and thought-provoking.

Not typical for Western audiences; requires patience. · Look for the subtleties in the brothers' dynamic. · The practical effects, though not many, are quite striking.
