Shalborne (2024) is a fascinating exploration of personal and political upheaval set against the backdrop of early 20th century England. Directed by Caroline Corrie, the film dives into the specifics of a letter from Tzar Nicholas, which really ties the historical events to the woman's personal struggles. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and the pacing is quite deliberate, allowing for character development that's both rich and layered. The performances are grounded, especially the lead, who embodies the conflict beautifully. Practical effects give it a gritty realism, which complements the themes of rebellion and oppression nicely. It’s this blend of history with personal narrative that sets it apart, making you think long after the credits roll.
