The TVI Take

Park Chan-wook's 2013 English-language debut, a Hitchcockian Shadow-of-a-Doubt-coded thriller anchored by Mia Wasikowska, Nicole Kidman, and Matthew Goode. The structural commitment to letting Park's visual language operate inside an American Gothic narrative was the formal experiment that proved the director's catalog could translate across language and culture.

Wentworth Miller's screenplay is rare written-by-actor work that holds up.
