The Worst Man in London, directed by Rodrigo Areias, immerses you in the murky depths of Victorian London through the eyes of Charles Augustus Howell. What’s interesting here is Howell's blend of charm and deceit; he’s not just your average art dealer. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to soak in the gritty atmosphere, with its smoky gaslit streets and the palpable tension of societal norms. The performances are quite compelling, especially the lead, who captures Howell's roguish nature perfectly. It has this distinctively dark yet vibrant tone, and the practical effects really ground the film in its historical context, pulling you into a world where morality is often traded for ambition. There’s a lot to unpack in terms of themes around power and betrayal, making it a film that lingers long after the credits roll.
