So, 'Close' from '93 is this really atmospheric piece that dives into obsession and the darker sides of desire. The way it unfolds is pretty intriguing, with Michael's fascination for Angelica driving the narrative. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing tension to simmer, especially in those moments of silence interspersed with his frantic searching. The whole vibe captures a sense of urban loneliness; the Brussels airport and the peep show scenes are gritty yet captivating. The performances are raw, almost unsettling at times, which adds to the film's edge. It's not your typical crime drama—it delves deep into psychological territory, leaving a lingering effect that’s hard to shake off.
