Review of The Assassin (2015) by Barbara Vandenburgh for Arizona Republic — 29 Oct 2015
That everything is held at such a remove is the artistry of The Assassin, but it comes at the cost of emotional investment. It’s so elliptical in its approach that there’s no love for anyone, or anything, outside of beauty.
It can be admired — greatly, even — but it can’t be felt.
