Carmilla - 2019 - 6/10

While the story is set in Victorian times, the film evokes the Regency countryside.
Young Lara is bitterly disappointed when Charlotte has become mysteriously ill and cannot visit.
Soon enough, however, a nearby carriage accident leaves a lovely guest recuperating in her home.
Carmilla. Who cannot remember her family, or where she came from.
As Carmilla settles in, Lara becomes smitten while the household is unsettled.
Beautiful, dream like film may move too slowly for impatient viewers.
Much is unspoken, more is repressed, leaving this a film open to interpretation.
