Odd Man Out (2008) offers a tense exploration of jealousy and paranoia. Vera, a single mother grappling with her daughter's emerging adulthood, finds herself consumed by delusions. The film's atmosphere is haunting, with a slow-burn pace that draws you into Vera's unraveling psyche. The performances are quite compelling, especially the dynamic between Vera and her daughter Masha, which adds layers of complexity to the narrative. Practical effects are minimal, but the subtlety in the film's direction creates a sense of looming dread. Themes of maternal jealousy and fear of loss resonate throughout, making it a distinctive narrative that lingers long after the credits roll.
