What a dreary film; what a tedious Emily. You could drop in Kim Cattrall (Samantha, SATC) as Vryling Buffum—who Catherine Bailey seemingly impersonates in cadence and biting one-liners—and it would not prick up this dull project's stymied rhythm. Terence Davies mistakes a frigid passion for "a quiet passion."
In the opposite corner, Molly Shannon's Wild Nights with Emily (Dir. Madeleine Olnek, 2018) is an equally strange film for a strange subject. However where A Quiet Passion fails, Wild Nights succeeds in wit, in spirit, and yup—in passion.
