The Power of the Dog

It’s a brawny, brooding drama about the wreckage caused by men, beautifully framed in muted neutral tones as the camera circles the ranch-house with a deliberate, stealthy tread.

...a tricky, arresting neo-noir Western.

The weathered earth tones of Campion’s subdued colour scheme conceal a vivid and full-blooded emotional palette.

...a western gothic psychodrama: mysterious, malicious, with a lethal ending that creeps up behind you like a thief.

...Campion remains a master of sensory storytelling, delivering a scorching study of masculinity rooted in fear.
