Each new clue leads Sam somewhere just a bit stranger-hidden codes, dog killers, underground cemetery raves set to R.E.M., a homicidal Bird Lady who will haunt your nightmares-until it’s impossible to tell the real-life from the red herring. At its center (or so he thinks) is a perfectly mediocre 30-something named Sam ( Andrew Garfield) who searches for a missing girl ( Riley Keough) and stumbles upon a vast, impenetrable conspiracy. In his first film after It Follows, director David Robert Mitchell explores a Los Angeles filled with odd fever dreams and fairy tale monsters, a noir-tinged wonderland. Under the Silver Lake is one of the most infuriatingly enjoyable mind trips I’ve ever been on. But even if you can’t quite wrap your head around everything it wants to say, I can almost guarantee you’ll be moved in some significant way. High Life is a complicated, unwieldy watch, and certainly won’t be for everyone, and that’s before you get to the “Fuck Box”. He anchors this free-floating tale all the way to its climax. Pattinson is a marvel here, quietly devastating and dangerous throughout High Life is always the first film I recommend to anyone searching through the actor’s incredible post- Twilight resume. Again, this sounds straightforward, but Denis slowly peels back the layers on both her story and characters to reveal something much more complex, horrifying, and touching. This meditative trip through the cosmos stars Robert Pattinson as a man raising a daughter aboard a doomed spacecraft, the last two survivors of a dangerous experiment, hurtling toward a black hole.
