Review of Four Nights with Anna (2008) by James C — 06 Jun 2009

This is a truly macabre little number. Leon works in a crematorium attached to a hospital and has an obsession with a nurse there who he saw violently raped. He begins to sedate her and then breaks into her house each night to do the housework (he sews buttons; fixes a clock and even cleans up after a birthday party he wasn't invited to).

But things don't turn out for the best. This is Polish cinema for you - in a dark, funny and yet restrained film.
