Review of The Human Voice

A one-woman film, based on a Jean Cocteau play, "freely adapted" by Almodovar, and wonderful to watch. The one woman is Tilda Swinton, and I'd probably watch her read from the phone directory, if such things still existed. It's a short film (28 minutes), with a set representing an apartment that is created within what appears to be a big studio or warehouse. Menacing, suspensful, clever, beautiful.

Watched on BBC iPlayer.
