If there is a truth that holds firm beneath the wickedly slippery surfaces of Luca Guadagnino's movies, it's that presentation counts. No sartorial decision is made lightly, and no design element is arrived at by accident. The opening titles of his new drama, "After the Hunt," should have you on high alert. They're elegantly rendered in what looks to be Windsor Light Condensed, widely recognizable as Woody Allen's onscreen typeface of choice.

"The complexity of Alma as a character is pure Guadagnino, a natural fit into a cinematic body of work defined by the prospect of voracious hunger, and offers Roberts her best role since 2004's Closer." The film contains a "smart, keenly observed and undoubtedly thorny power play" in what is "an arresting psychodrama", Strong added.
