It’s been seven years since Hélène Cattet and Bruno Forzani overwhelmed the senses with the dazzling Let the Corpses Tan. Their long-awaited return engagement Reflection in a Dead Diamond, on Shudder Dec. 5, doesn’t disappoint, hurtling viewers through a kaleidoscopic vortex of cinematic sights and sounds in order to celebrate, critique, and have delirious fun with their chosen genre.
In this case, that would be Swinging Sixties James Bond-ian spy adventures, whose dashing heroes, nefarious villains, alluring beauties, and stylish sex and violence are all remixed by the married French auteurs into a dizzying down-the-rabbit-hole fantasia. Strap in, hold on, and succumb to this ecstatically inventive one-of-a-kind film.
