CARMEN 15

OUT NOW CINEMAS

A complete reinvention of Georges Bizet’s opera,) as a grief-stricken woman who sets her home alight and flees across the border, into the path of former soldier Aidan (Paul Mescal). Barrera is radiant, Mescal blistering, and the chemistry sizzles as the pair are pursued by the law. Millepied stages some emotional dance sequences, too, but the plot meanders and the soundtrack suffers from a lack of earworms.
