there is a glamour to this movie. a strange –almost primitive– magic in the visuals, the sound design.
my friend tells me this is not a deep film, yet my mind craves that which is hidden. perhaps a cheap trick played with evil women hides something. yet the large portion of this movies' premise and ending feel unearned. perhaps in every sense except stylistic. can a movie subsist purely on style? if so, it almost certainly shouldn't work with Suspiria, what with the all the production artefacts.
and yet, and yet i remain drawn in by its spell.
