The tranquility of the night, he hopes, will help him focus on his new novel.
His days become more exciting when he starts a romance with Margit
(Kristin Scott Thomas), a mysterious and elegant widow who sets strange
rules to their meetings: she will only see him at her apartment in the
fifth arrondissement, at 5 pm sharp, twice a week and he should ask no
questions about her work or her past life. When people suddenly start
dying around Tom, he begins to believe that a dark force has entered his
life. (Art Takes Over)
“Pawel Pawlikowski keeps a tight grip on his film, insisting a seriousness that the actors wrap themselves in like a mantle… [Ethan Hawke] draws you close.” - Manohla Dargis, THE NEW YORK TIMES
