...an uncompromised and uncompromising film which contains moments of horror and physicality far more shattering than the goriest special effects gimmick.

Mindre ren skräck och mer art/drama i detta mästerverk med Jeremy Irons i en dubbelroll. Geneviève Bujold matchar fint i den kvinnliga huvudrollen.
