The scouts

A rehearsal where everyone's fighting for the lead role is the kind of anarchic premise that sounds like a sketch but somehow becomes genuinely disorienting—it's what happens when you take the theatrical ego seriously enough to let it cannibalize the entire frame.

Felix

The film engages with a long tradition of theatrical meta-comedy, though its experimental energy occasionally overwhelms the compositional clarity that would elevate it beyond clever conceit into something more architecturally considered.

Margot

There's a single decision here—keeping the camera locked and neutral while the chaos of competing performances swells around it—that transforms what could've been mayhem into something oddly crystalline and controlled.
