    • Fantastic film. The pacing, with the gradual reveals of each character’s issues, was excellent. A film that is worth repeated viewings.
    • ‘Films’ within films, Plays within ‘Plays’ – two sisters seemingly opposites, yet at times indistinguishable. What was What was real and what was simulation? Superb acting!
    • Innovative film making, excellent acting. I really enjoyed it.
    • A perfectly cut diamond of a film with acting of the very highest order. Simply wonderful.
    • Great film.
    • Blew me away! Such a realistic portrayal of a complex family with generational trauma. Amazing acting.
    • Very Nordic. Fantastic performances – is life just that then. Think I need to see it again to fully appreciate it. Loved the house!
    • Brilliantly acted and very believable – nice music too.
    • Great film – super acting. A film I probably wouldn’t have seen without the club!
    • Loved it
    • Dramatic version of the BBC’s House Thru Time.
  • ‘Very Good’: 5 votes
    • Nothing like a dose of Nordic angst to remind one of a month spent watching Bergman!
    • Beautiful filming. Brilliant acting. Very thoughtful.
    • I found it absorbing and thought provoking.
    • Terrific film, wonderful acting, great soundtrack. Further viewing will reveal more.
    • Mesmerising. The crack in the home eventually mended. Not sure about choice of music – more a Leonard Cohen film?!
