Interesting story, digging back through the mystery to the original event. The reveal caught me by surprise, and I think I just about figured out the plot, but I was left wondering if the earlier parts were consistent with what we found out later on.
Two big minuses. The pace is slooow. Apart from the dream bits, the first fright came at 75 mins. The characters are really well acted, but a lot of the time I was begging them to speak, to let me have some information. It was all so solemn. The worst example of this is at the dinner party, although there was a great performance in that scene by the step-mother - but that also raised questions about the final outcome. Why were the guests so uncomfortable with her?
