Editor’s note: Here’s a brief overview of Carmen (2023): While firmly rooted in the Drama genre, it offers a deeply personal narrative. Under the direction of Benjamin Millepied, the film maintains a consistent pace and a vivid sense of location. The performances, particularly by Melissa Barrera and Paul Mescal, bring a human element to the tale. The 1 hour and 57-minute runtime is fitting for the story. Although the reception has been mixed, it’s worthwhile if you’re seeking mood and atmosphere. Its tagline, “A unique cinematic experience,” captures its essence well. If the storyline resonates with you, consider adding it to your watchlist.
