Ben Wheatley

What makes a Ben Wheatley film a Ben Wheatley film

Across 10 films, they run much less hope, much less connection and much more ambiguity than films in general. Their films resemble each other far more than any 10 films picked at random would, which is what makes one recognisable before anybody says who directed it.

The line down the middle is the average film. A bar to the right means more of that reading than films in general, to the left less. Drawn from every film of theirs in the catalogue, not a selection.
