The Woman in the Fifth

Before Ida and Cold War, Pawlikowski directed an atmospheric film in the City of Light, steeped in erotic tension and psychological suspense, drawing the viewer into a world where reality and dreams intertwine masterfully. Ethan Hawke delivers one of his finest performances.
