Timon of Athens

About This Movie

Timon of Athens (2018) offers a raw, thought-provoking look at wealth and friendship, directed by Stephen Ouimette. The atmosphere is thick with tension, especially as Timon's generosity starts to erode his standing. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the audience to really sit with the tragedy of his downfall.

The practical effects and minimalistic staging really enhance the emotional weight of the story, making it feel intimate yet expansive at the same time. There's a grit to the performances that makes the exploration of false friendships and betrayal all the more poignant.
