Review of The Power of the Dog (2021) by Alex997 — 17 Nov 2021
It took Campion 11 years to return to feature films but the waiting was worth it because she came back bearing something frightening, powerful and breathtakingly beautiful. The main character’s cruelty seems to come from a dark place brimming with self-loathing and loneliness.
Despite his brutality I don’t think Phil was a monster but a deeply sad, fragile and tortured human being. Excellently directed and with brilliant performances from its ensemble cast The Power of the Dog is a scorching tale of sinister passion and fury.
