Atom User Reviews
This was a boring pointless film that is probably the worst I’ve ever seen. It went nowhere and it was impossible to care what happened. We left after about an hour and weren’t the first to get out
I wish I could give zero stars
Metacritic
It’s multi-layered and beautifully observed – as much about the creative process as it is about obsessive love. It’s a glorious affirmation of how experience feeds artistic endeavour.
As a result, The Souvenir, Hogg’s fourth film, is an extraordinary rumination on memory and privilege while also being one of the most incisive movies ever to directly address — in moral, philosophical and personal terms — what it means to be a filmmaker.
At her best — which is more often than you can imagine — Hogg convinces you that incoherence is the only honest way to tell a story with any emotional complexity. She spoils you for the overshapers, the spoon-feeders.
