🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a clever parallel between a theatrical production and a real crime wave, relying on the enduring Jack the Ripper mythos to fuel its mystery. It explores the unsettling blur between performance and reality in 1960s London.
What lingers after the credits is the chilling ambiguity about art imitating life, wrapped in a straightforward but effective whodunit structure. — MovieFinder Editorial
