Jean-Marc Vallée

What makes a Jean-Marc Vallée film a Jean-Marc Vallée film

Across 6 films, they run somewhat more beauty, somewhat more existential weight and somewhat more spirituality than films in general. Their films vary about as much as any director’s do, so this is an average rather than a template.

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.
