Reflection in a Dead Diamond (2025) This is INCREDIBLE It’s like Danger: Diabolik refracted through a diamond and madness

nw: Reflection in a Dead Diamond (2025, dir. Hélène Cattet & Bruno Forzani)

2025 watch #953: Reflection in a Dead Diamond (2025) This movie fucks. Like David Lynch directed a giallo James Bond, with BDSM ninjas, a woman in leather tearing a man's sack off like paper towels, Judith and Holofernes, and never knowing what, if anything, is real.

REFLECTION IN A DEAD DIAMOND is so fucking great, y'all. So. Fucking. Great. Their best yet. I don't understand how they can construct films like they do and not lose the thread, but goddamn. Another winner.
