Alice

About This Movie

Alice (2019), directed by Juliette Rose, is a haunting exploration of grief and the passage of time. The film really captures that eerie, liminal space where Jacques, the father, is caught in this endless cycle of waiting for his daughter. The atmosphere is thick with melancholy, bolstered by practical effects that transform his mundane existence into something more surreal. There’s a tangible sense of unease as strange occurrences stir the dust in his life. The pacing feels deliberate, almost dreamlike, allowing viewers to dwell on Jacques' emotional landscape. The performances are subtle yet deeply resonant, making the surreal elements feel intimate rather than distant. It's not your typical fantasy; it's more of a meditation on loss and the uncanny.
