Sarnet elevates his Rabelaisian folktale into a tragedy illustrated by haunting, metaphorical imagery.

November is one of those films you can enjoy staring at from a perspective of visual-arts appreciation, even if the story gets thin (and it definitely does).

Sarnet's earthbound fairy tale occupies a dreamscape somewhere between the teeming canvases of Brueghel and the existential agonies of Bela Tarr's films. And it's funny, with a sly salaciousness all its own.

2/5

The experimental foreign film brims with allegory and is strikingly shot. However, the film’s compelling qualities never seem to match its obscene effort towards the art.

4.5/5

November descends into the despairing snowy forests of Estonia to spin a dreamlike tale of folkloric superstition, unrequited love, and exchanges of souls.

3.5/5

November is a film that has striking visuals that make it entirely worth seeing all by themselves with performances that fascinate and creatures that puzzle in a good way.

I think it is a love story but I was too interested in the weirdness to pay any attention to that. Such a fun experience that I'm sure I'll never feel again with any film! Also, the main actress, Rea Lest, did a formidable job, you can see both wolves - the wild and the docile - in her eyes.

Weird and funny. I read the book right after the first minutes, which is even better.

Enchanting. The plot was circuitous at best, but the cinematography and quirky dialogue kept me engaged.

There was nothing about this I didn't love the first time I watched it, and the more times I watch it the more I love it.

Undeniably beautiful imagery and cinematography, but ultimately a bit too unfocused and ponderous which made it a bit of a slog to get through.

Wonderful gothic fairy tale. Haunting but amusing and silly at the same time, in this way it reminded me of The Seventh Seal. Many have criticised the overall plot as too straightforward, but who cares when there is so much tangential weirdness at play? Brilliant soundtrack to boot.
