Though none of the stories are connected—or even exist in the same ostensible world—there is a consistent throughline of analyzing performance. The idea of fortune is not inherently bound to prosperity, but rather the more intangible and improbable intricacies of fated consequences.

In this sense, the role of fantasy is to act as a salve for the often depressing mundanity of real-life obligations and social mores, whether through speculative daydreams, beguiling lies or invited deceit. However, the women explored in each segment are hardly defined by their success in securing a happy union.

Both Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy and Drive My Car incorporate themes of the erotic thrill of crafting a narrative, the power in playing pretend, and the malleable and ever-transmogrifying nature of human relationships. Jim Cummings tends to play men who refuse to lose control. His characters feel similar, but then so do many white, cisgender, heterosexual, elder millennial men—unable to wield power over their domain, they flail belligerently through these, their End Times. They find closure in slapping around a corpse Thunder Road , or they turn to folklore and cryptozoology to explain a world they no longer understand at all The Wolf of Snow Hollow.

Everything is terrifying, everyone is watching, and the least noble thing any of them can do as the teeth rot from their mouths is rage against a universe that no longer wants them.

In a narrative device easily comparable to Rashomon , another film which details the conflicting accounts surrounding a rape, the script co-penned by stars Matt Damon and Ben Affleck alongside Nicole Holofcener , sends us back to the beginning three times.

The Last Duel retreads the path already taken, but each occasion with a different guide. In some instances, diplomatic actions become violent ones, off-handed glances become indicative of deceit, relationships drastically change, words take on different meanings, and the world is suddenly observed as if we were seeing it for the very first time.

Which is why, when we are introduced to the knight Jean de Carrouges Damon , we come face-to-face with a grizzled, esteemed war hero. He charges into a brutal battle and valiantly hacks away at the enemy forces. Spears enter chests, viscera is sliced, blood sprays to near-comical effect.

Aisling Franciosi gives a daring performance as Clare, a servant in a penal colony in , who is raped before her baby is killed. She hunts down her attackers and gets her vengeance, but that description simplifies a daring, complex film about colonialism, trauma, and pure evil.
