Review by dalyanciloomerfaruk

Effigy: Poison and the City

10/10

Award winning

We need more attention to films like this. Loved everything about this flick. The murderer seems to harbor jealousy for the talents and societal status of her adversary, the young legal assistant Cato Böhmer. While there are several plausible interpretations of the killer's motives and psychological makeup, for the most part, her actions remain an enigma, providing ample food for thought afterwards. Why did she commit multiple murders while simultaneously presenting herself as a compassionate individual?

Unlike many contemporary films that seem to favor mumbling or accompany dialogues with excessive background noises or music, the conversations in this film are sonorously pleasing.

This film is undoubtedly a worthwhile watch, appealing not only to enthusiasts of historical dialogues. I am already anticipating Udo Flohr's next cinematic creation and remain hopeful that he will continue to collaborate with such formidable actors.
