Originally Published 2 years ago — by IndieWire
"All of Us Strangers," directed by Andrew Haigh, is a haunting and emotionally resonant ghost story that explores the complexities of intimacy and the power of absences in shaping our lives. Starring Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal, the film follows a lonely gay screenwriter who forms a romance with another resident in his eerie London high-rise. As he delves into his past through writing a screenplay, he encounters his long-dead parents and confronts the pain and isolation he has carried throughout his life. Haigh's delicate storytelling and poignant performances create a deeply moving and introspective film that explores themes of identity, vulnerability, and the catharsis of letting pain in.
