If you loved The Death & Life of John F. Donovan, try Tom at the Farm
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
Both films are directed by Xavier Dolan, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Death & Life of John F. Donovan, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
bittersweet
What Tom at the Farm is
A dirt road in early autumn. A suitcase knocking against the gravel. A gently spoken man arrives for a funeral only to find the late lover’s brother in full control, rewriting grief as accusation and comfort as threat. Dolan folds a coming-of-age elegy inside a backwoods horror.
