Last Night in Soho (2021)


 Last Night in Soho (2021) was interesting. I wouldn't say I loved it (it didn't crack my Top 100 list, for example), in part because it wasn't really very scary... it was more a drama/thriller. Also, I wasn't blown away by the solution to the mystery, and finally, I'm tired of the misogynistic portrayal of sex work as inherently degrading. But I enjoyed the 60s dream sequences, and the identity crisis trope is always interesting. Others that do it better are Perfect Blue (1997), Fight Club (1999), Black Swan (2010), and Cam (2018). Thomasin McKenzie sure is a beauty though! And a good actress, I look forward to more from her. Also stars Anya Taylor-Joy, of The Witch (2015) and Split (2016).
