[The Daily] Cannes 2017: Andrei Zvyagintsev's Loveless
By David Hudson
"Loveless is "two hours of gorgeously gloomy existential despair courtesy of the well-regarded Russian filmmaker Andrey Zvyagintsev," writes Justin Chang in the Los Angeles Times. "Often touted as an heir to Tarkovsky, Russian cinema's other famously austere Andrey, Zvyagintsev previously competed at Cannes with Leviathan (2014), which won the jury's screenwriting award and went on to score an Oscar nomination for foreign-language film. Like that earlier film, Loveless is a shatteringly bleak family drama that expands into a corrosive critique of its country's social, political and spiritual ills."
