With echoes of All About Eve and Sunset Boulevard, David Cronenberg’s (A History of Violence) satirical Hollywood-noir is twisty, twisted, and far from the predictable platitudes about celebrity culture. Julianne Moore goes for broke as a fading actress haunted by her dead screen-legend mother, Mia Wasikowska creeps in as her ambitious assistant with a shady past, and John Cusack delights as a self-help quack. “Crisply directed, furiously paced and gleefully performed” (The Atlantic). D: David Cronenberg, US, 2015, 111m
