Rent Reality (2023)
3.5 of 5 from 69 ratings
1h 23min
This is more of a low-budget re-enaction than a feature film, with a single-house location and all dialogue copied from a transcription of a real FBI interrogation. Doesn’t sound like a must-see, but it’s surprisingly engrossing, even thrilling. If you don’t know Reality’s story (Reality is the lead character’s name) it will draw you into her predicament when FB guys (all guys) accost her outside her house. What do they think she’s done? Why doesn’t she ask them? As the reasons unravel, it’s increasingly involving. It’s also fascinating to see how the FBI work in real life - extremely polite but with a menacing edge of steel. Don’t expect a visual treat but, at just over an hour, this is an engrossing watch.
