nyff review: after the hunt

Luca Guadagnino's After the Hunt was the opening night selection at this year's New York Film Festival.

I enjoyed the film and its aesthetics (those oversized blazers!), but all of its elements don't gel, and there are weird point-of-view shifts that leave its side characters, especially Ayo Edebiri's, in the dust. 

Still worth watching for a vigorous performance from Julia Roberts. Always a treat to see her tackle brittle characters.
