The Eyes of My Mother

January 15, 2017 By Cvon

CINEMA DISORDINAIRE

Nicolas Pesce’s new American gothic, The Eyes Of My Mother (2016), is a spare, simmering vision of riptiding loneliness and grim pathology, and it is both beautiful and unconventionally good. Pesce gives us a protagonist we cannot know, nor scarcely bear, and delivers a film we can no less turn our eyes from, though considering the subject at hand this may be blindingly ill-advised.

Below is an official clip of the opening scene, followed with a bootlegged grab from a chilling encounter with, astonishingly, the least menacing character in the film.
