When Ellen (Diana Kent) confesses to a brief affair with a rival up-and-coming artist, Morlang retreats into the arms of a young admirer (Susan Burroughs). An unexpected and devastating development strains Julius and Ellen's relationship even more.

Without enough suspense, surprise or engagement, this pretty-as-a-picture piece feels as flat as one of Freeman's paintings.

A portentous and goopy Dutch drama, in which the holy agony of creative expression is accompanied by plinky music, and the wild Irish countryside is always kissed in mist.

Morlang has surprises up its sleeve that even the seasoned genre fan may not see coming.

Straining for emotional intricacy, the film's structure simply isn't strong enough to support its aims.

A murder mystery so artfully restrained you almost expect Diana Rigg to deliver a witty epilogue.
