Corsage

2022 / 113m - Austria
Drama
2.5*/5.0*
Corsage poster

A costume drama with (slightly) more contemporary elements. It's a film that offers a more down-to-earth and sobering take on a famous historical figure, not unlike LarraĆ­n's Spencer. While Kreutzer's intentions were good, I don't think the result is quite as strong or outspoken as it could've been.

The more contemporary score was a lovely surprise and the cinematography is solid. Vicky Krieps did a pretty good job too, but somehow the drama and Elisabeth's plight didn't quite hit me the way it was supposed to. It's certainly a step up from most costume drama, but I'd hoped for something a little extra.
