SPENCER
Pablo Larraín luxuriously mounts the Princess Di biopic SPENCER as a Kubrickian psychodrama about eating disorders and self-harm, in which the threat of “sandwiches” proves as ominous as “Tuesday” in THE SHINING. Unfortunately, the film fails to recognize her rebellion as an extension of self-destruction, conflating her duty with a scheduled wardrobe labeled “P.O.W.” and celebrating her lack of fidelity with a hat brandishing “O.P.P.”
