definitely my favourite todd haynes movie. i love the oppresive asseptic atmosphere, all those whites and off-whites and pastel colours couldn't feel more cold; the contrast with the 80s flamboyant fashion works really well. and julianne moore, of course. it's a film made for her. she's, as usual, amazing, i love the way she acts her illness, so desperate, weak and calm at the same time. and how her need to escape all those everyday toxic substances escalates until she goes to that sect-like sanatorium, and that white porcelain bubble she ends up in. she reaches a state where she's even allergic to her husband. i can't understand why this isn't a more known film, to be honest.
Rating: 9/10
