Review of The Tutor

The Tutor (2016)
5/10
What you'd expect
27 February 2022
This half-baked Henry James adaptation from the recent suicide Ivan Noel is basically what you'd expect. The way the movie is photographed completely overwhelms any pretense of story. Noel was a photographer, and his favourite subject were underaged boys, preferably naked. "La tutora" is only an outlier in that it features a naked girl as well.

The plot is an afterthought, but who watches a Noel movie for plot anyway?

The fact that the movie is apparently set in the modern day only makes the inclusion of a 19th century storyline seem even more pointless.
