A middle-aged British novelist arrives in America and rents a room from a widow. He becomes obsessed with her teenage daughter, leading him into a troubled relationship shaped by secrecy, jealousy, manipulation, and increasingly desperate choices.

My take

You may enjoy this if you appreciate morally challenging dramas with dark humor, uneasy tension, and strong performances; Not for you if you want a fast-paced or comfortable romance.
