Rita

It sits among some of the best films Bustamante has created and stays with you long after the final scene.

Bustamante remains a narratively resourceful and exciting artist. If not a flat-out consummation of his talents, Rita certainly expands his scope into more intricate tonal and stylistic experimentation, as he completely frees himself from the chains of straightforward realism.

A visually sumptuous and evocative, but uneven feature.
