If you loved Sweet Dreams, try Benedetta
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sweet Dreams, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Benedetta is
17th-century Italian convent, a crucifix hangs, chanting echoes. A novice arrives, a nun's devotion wavers, visions begin. Verhoeven's period drama is characteristically unflinching.
