Luca Guadagnino, one of the most prolific filmmakers of our time, is back with yet another movie having its European Premiere at the BFI London Film Festival: After the Hunt. I happen to be a pretty big fan of Guadagnino, really liking movies such as Call Me By Your Name and Challengers. Last year though, he did disappoint me with his Daniel Craig OSCAR vehicle, Queer. After the Hunt boasts a terrific cast, including Julia Robert’s and Andrew Garfield who are first-time collaborators with Guadagnino. The movie promises to be a provocative #MeToo inspired thriller but does it deliver on making an insightful statement on the generational divide in our times through some pretty tough and controversial subject matter? Find out in this review!
