Scary But Slow - Images review by Cato
Scary, but only when Susannah shrieks after seeing one of the men from her past, who seems to crop up rather a lot, considering he's dead. Obviously It's a good film, it was made by Robert Altman after all, but I did find the "images" rather wearing after a time.

Susannah York Mesmerises, Emotion Eludes - Images review by griggs
Robert Altman's Images is an intriguing watch, and Susannah York's performance is undoubtedly the highlight. Despite not striking an emotional chord, the film's ability to hold my attention was commendable. I didn't feel any emotional resonance with any of the characters, which was unusual given my usual appreciation for psychological thrillers. A deeper emotional connection could have heightened the tension and surreal atmosphere, but it didn't detract from the overall entertainment value.
