Started out with a kinda silly and absurd premise, but it ended with me actually caring if Julia gets out of her situation. The whole erasure of identity and gaslighting was actually a frightening thought.

Women’s invisibility played as a suffocating and a diabolical sort of terror in this gothic-noir hybrid with a totally buckwild final few moments
