Edmond (2006)

Edmond is a dark drama that follows one man's unraveling. A single night spirals into chaos, paranoia, and violence. It plays out across the seedier corners of the city. The film's descent into sleaze and menace gives its cast plenty of room. They go bare and unguarded throughout. Mena Suvari and Julia Stiles both surface in encounters that lean into that exposed, uneasy territory. Bai Ling, Wendy Thompson, and Rebecca Pidgeon round out a lineup. That lineup keeps the tension unpredictable scene to scene. The archive holds 2 clips worth revisiting. They capture nude and topless flashes that punctuate the film's bleak spiral.
