This shivery, styled psychological drama stars Julianne Moore as an affluent housewife with an increasingly debilitating and mysterious illness that starts when her family renovates their Los Angeles home. Filmed in 1995 and set in 1987, director Todd Haynes offers an exciting foray into the idea of trust, illness, and the idea of an ever-isolated woman.
“Todd Haynes’ Safe grips you with its air of antiseptic malevolence and leaves you gasping. You feel as disoriented as the protagonist, a young housewife suffering from 20th-century disease.” – The Globe and Mail
