Knock at the Cabin Review

Not with a bang but a whimper

BY ALEX DE VORE alex@sfreporter.com

Oh, M. Night Shyamalan, you’ve done it again! You’ve taken a mega-intriguing premise and let it fizzle out with an ending that can’t possibly live up to the elements you put in place along the way. You did it with Old when the payoff was that one beach just plain made people old somehow; you did with it with Mr. Glass when Bruce Willis’ nouveau-superhero just kind of died; and now you’ve done it with Knock at the Cabin, wherein the ending just kind of rolls up on the viewer leaving us to be like, “Huh...”

Based on the Paul G. Tremblay novel, The Cabin at the End of the World, Shyamalan’s newest finds a couple of dads (Spring Awakening/Hamilton originator Jonathan Groff and Ben Aldridge, Pennyworth) on vacation in some Pennsylvania cabin, where they become the victims of a quartet of home invaders led by hulking teacher/b-ball coach Leonard (Dave Bautista, Guardians of the Galaxy). With the dads is their 7-yearold adopted daughter, Wen (Kristen Cui), which kind of makes things more tense, even if her presence feels like a plot device rather than a meaningful addition; Leonard leads a forgettable cadre of over-actors, save Harry Potter alum Rupert Grint, who at least tries to summon some intensity.

+ NIGHY’S WONDERFUL; EXCELLENTLY SHOT

- TEDIOUS; DOESN’T TRUST ITS AUDIENCE

Though Bill Nighy’s performance in Shaun of the Dead should be considered one of the finest pieces of acting in film history, the man is dominating Oscars conversations for his performance in Living, the new ultra-British drama from director Oliver Hermanus and writer Kazuo Ishiguro. The piece is adapted from Akira Kurosawa’s Ikiru—itself a sort of adaptation of Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich—wherein a man with little time left to live decides he’s gonna do some good while he still can.

Oh, it’s not that Nighy isn’t excellent in the film. As a stuffed-shirt über-fop working for London’s public works department in the 1950s, he’s perfectly flat and emotionless. All around him, vestiges of Britannia’s mind-your-manners faux politeness reign. “A bit like church,” says one character, as painfully correct as it is weird and pointless. As a dying guy who realizes propagating red tape kind of sucks, Nighy’s Mr. Williams is...well, he’s still pretty staid. Still, though, the message about trying to do good is pretty nice as messages go, and Living certainly cuts a pretty picture thanks to cinematographer Jamie Ramsay.

Here we find a repressed and aging British gent grappling with a terminal cancer diagnosis. None of his co-workers (über-serious Brits, all) know of his troubles, but they do seem irked when he stops showing up for work for just two days. See, he’s

Seems Leonard and his gang have been experiencing convincing visions about the end of the world, and those visions have led them to this very cabin where they’ll need to ask the unwitting inhabitants to make the worst decision ever. If their captives don’t do the unthinkable, Leonard and the gang believe, it’ll usher in the end of the world, courtesy of God himself. Creepy stuff happens as our leads teeter between disbelief and belief, and we’re meant to question how we’d behave if we, too, became participants in the worst camping trip ever.

As with most of his work, Shyamalan’s cinematography is stunning and inventive. Still, he once again establishes narrative threads that just kind of go nowhere. While Groff and Aldridge do their best with clunky dialogue and fleeting flashback vignettes— not to mention the vaguest hint of ill-considered “queer-bashing is wrong!” rhetoric. Yes, it is, but once pulled out half his savings and set off for the coast, where, under the tutelage of some kind of poet or something (Jamie Wilkes, whom we know is artsy because he monologues briefly about how Paris is cool) he drinks a bunch, buys a new hat and falls in love with the art of the arcade claw machine. Oh, he returns to work shortly thereafter, only between his oceanside exploits and a growing platonic relationship with former employee Margaret (Aimee Lou Wood, Sex Education), he decides he’ll help some poverty-stricken mothers build a middling playground in, like, Whitechapel, probably.

The rest is either told through flashbacks that prove how dedicated Mr. Williams was in the end or painfully polite exchanges between his son, his underlings, his boss, the intriguing young Margaret and so on. Living is a little bit about happiness, a little bit about living and a whole lot slow. It would be so tempting to cite Nighy’s stirring rendition of a man literally re-discovering his voice as enough, but this is otherwise a run-of-the-mill drama that seemingly confuses swelling, dramatic music and tearful funerals as fine filmmaking. In fact, had any other actor undertaken the role of Mr. Williams, it might be a different conversation altogether. As it stands, the best you can say is that Nighy’s always good, so we can forgive the kind of slow pacing that kills cinema newcomers’ interests before they can blossom. Still, as Mr. Williams says in the film, if even the things without longevity can help someone, that’s enough— maybe Living will convince someone to live or be nice to people or something. (ADV) again we’re trapped in a trauma loop and it feels more manipulative than vital to the story. Bautista, meanwhile, proves he’s come into his own as a performer. The dichotomy of Leonard’s imposing presence and soft-spoken portends of terror is as unsettling as it gets, but anytime he’s not on screen one longs for his return.

Center for Contemporary Arts, PG-13, 102 min.

And then it ends, not with a bang but a whimper. Those who’ve seen movies before will no doubt predict what’s coming, even through some intensely enjoyable plot beats. If the moral is that belief and faith are something-something, then cool. It’s just the whole getting there part that feels tedious.

When You Finish Saving The World

Celebrated fast-talking actor Jesse Eisenberg enters a new career era with When You Finish Saving the World, an adaptation of his 2020 audio drama for Audible wherein disparate generational perspectives inform challenges across a wide spectrum of life’s hurdles.

Eisenberg penned and directed the film version of his story, trading out his own vocal performance from the Audible release—and that of Booksmart actress Kaitlyn Dever—for a more grounded take on the mother/son quagmire. Julianne Moore plays the humorless mother Evelyn; Stranger Things’ Finn Wolfhard tackles son Ziggy, a powder keg of growing pains, online validation and run-of-the-mill teen bullshit.

In World, Wolfhard’s Ziggy finds support and acknowledgement when livestreaming folk-rock songs to a listener base of 20,000—a number he casually drops into conversation far too often. Aurally, the songs sound like old Beck—super-early, One Foot in the Grave Beck. Lyrically, they’re a painfully spot-on glimpse at teenage emotions that strike a believable balance between silly little nothings and moments of genuine insight and talent.

Ziggy’s parents just don’t understand, though, and while his explosive reactions to his mother and father (Jay O. Sanders) seem over the top, Eisenberg’s script shows deft understanding of just how hard we feel when we’re young.

Moore’s Evelyn is the founder of an abused women’s shelter, and though she freely shows support for her patients, she struggles to connect with her own son. Here, World is at its best with a character steeped in relatable flaws who thinks she’s helping but kind of just goes on hurting. Moore expertly phases from work mom to home mom, and we might hate her for the glib manner in which she questions Ziggy’s motivations if we didn’t remember how tired we can be at the end of the day—or just how tough teens can be. Wolfhard mostly keeps up with her, too, and proves to be a capable performer. It is doubtful, however, this will be remembered as his best work.

When Evelyn forms a bond with a new patient’s son, things get tricky. Seeing in him the things she most wants in a son, her misguided jabs at a motherhood redo become ever more frantic. Ziggy, meanwhile, tries to infiltrate a friend group of woke-lite kids at his school, all the while misunderstanding why his passions don’t carry weight similar to his classmate’s pseudo-politicking. Ultimately, though, his earnestness saves him. Moore’s Evelyn comes to understand this, just as Ziggy comes to understand how his mother’s efforts, though not flashy, are wildly impressive. Gee, it’s almost like everyone has their own story or something.

Psychics

Rob Brezsny Week of February 8th

ARIES (March 21-April 19): During my quest for advice that might be helpful to your love life, I plucked these words of wisdom from author Sam Kean: “Books about relationship talk about how to ‘get’ the love you need, how to ‘keep’ love, and so on. But the right question to ask is, ‘How do I become a more loving human being?’” In other words, Aries, here’s a prime way to enhance your love life: Be less focused on what others can give you and more focused on what you can give to others. Amazingly, that’s likely to bring you all the love you want.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You have the potential to become even more skilled at the arts of kissing and cuddling and boinking than you already are. How? Here are some possibilities. 1. Explore fun experiments that will transcend your reliable old approaches to kissing and cuddling and boinking. 2. Read books to open your mind. I like Margot Anand’s The New Art of Sexual Ecstasy. 3. Ask your partner(s) to teach you everything about what turns them on. 4. Invite your subconscious mind to give you dreams at night that involve kissing and cuddling and boinking. 5. Ask your lover(s) to laugh and play and joke as you kiss and cuddle and boink.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You are an Italian wolf searching for food in the Apennine Mountains. You’re a red-crowned crane nesting in a wetland in the Eastern Hokkaido region of Japan. You’re an olive tree thriving in a salt marsh in southern France, and you’re a painted turtle basking in a pool of sunlight on a beach adjoining Lake Michigan. And much, much more. What I’m trying to tell you, Gemini, is that your capacity to empathize is extra strong right now. Your smart heart should be so curious and open that you will naturally feel an instinctual bond with many life forms, including a wide array of interesting humans. If you’re brave, you will allow your mind to expand to experience telepathic powers. You will have an unprecedented knack for connecting with simpatico souls.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): My Cancerian friend Juma says, “We have two choices at all times: creation or destruction. Love creates and everything else destroys.” Do you agree? She’s not just talking about romantic love, but rather love in all forms, from the urge to help a friend, to the longing to seek justice for the dispossessed, to the compassion we feel for our descendants. During the next three weeks, your assignment is to explore every nuance of love as you experiment with the following hypothesis: To create the most interesting and creative life for yourself, put love at the heart of everything you do.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I hope you get ample chances to enjoy deep soul kisses in the coming weeks. Not just perfunctory lip-to-lip smooches and pecks on the cheeks, but full-on intimate sensual exchanges. Why do I recommend this? How could the planetary positions be interpreted to encourage a specific expression of romantic feeling? I’ll tell you, Leo: The heavenly omens suggest you will benefit from exploring the frontiers of wild affection. You need the extra sweet, intensely personal communion that comes best from the uninhibited mouth-to-mouth form of tender sharing. Here’s what Leo poet Diane di Prima said: “There are as many kinds of kisses as there are people on earth, as there are permutations and combinations of those people. No two people kiss alike—no two people fuck alike—but somehow the kiss is more personal, more individualized than the fuck.”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Borrowing the words of poet Oriah from her book The Dance: Moving to the Deep Rhythms of Your Life, I’ve prepared a love note for you to use as your own this Valentine season. Feel free to give these words to the person whose destiny needs to be woven more closely together with yours. Oriah writes, “Don’t tell me how wonderful things will be someday. Show me you can risk being at peace with the way things are right now. Show me how you follow your deepest desires, spiraling down into the ache within the ache. Take me to the places on the earth that teach you how to dance, the places where you can risk letting the world break your heart.”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran author Walter Lippman wrote, “The emotion of love is not self-sustaining; it endures only when lovers love many things together, and not merely each other.” That’s great advice for you during the coming months. I suggest that you and your allies— not just your romantic partners, but also your close companions—come up with collaborative projects that inspire you to love many things together. Have fun exploring and researching subjects that excite and awaken and enrich both of you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Scorpio writer Paul Valéry wrote, “It would be impossible to love anyone or anything one knew completely. Love is directed towards what lies hidden in its object.” My challenge to you, Scorpio, is to test this hypothesis. Do what you can to gain more in-depth knowledge of the people and animals and things you love. Uncover at least some of what’s hidden. All the while, monitor yourself to determine how your research affects your affection and care. Contrary to what Valéry said, I’m guessing this will enhance and exalt your love.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In his book Unapologetically You, motivational speaker Steve Maraboli writes, “I find the best way to love someone is not to change them, but instead, help them reveal the greatest version of themselves.” That’s always good advice, but I believe it should be your inspirational axiom in the coming weeks. More than ever, you now have the potential to forever transform your approach to relationships. You can shift away from wanting your allies to be different from what they are and make a strong push to love them just as they are.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I analyzed the astrological omens. Then I scoured the internet, browsed through 22 books of love poetry, and summoned memories of my best experiences of intimacy. These exhaustive efforts inspired me to find the words of wisdom that are most important for you to hear right now. They are from poet Rainer Maria Rilke (translated by Stephen Mitchell): “For one human being to love another human being: that is perhaps the most difficult task that has been entrusted to us, the ultimate task, the final test and proof, the work for which all other work is merely preparation.”

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): To get the most out of upcoming opportunities for intimacy, intensify your attunement to and reverence for your emotions. Why? As quick and clever as your mind can be, sometimes it neglects to thoroughly check in with your heart. And I want your heart to be wildly available when you get ripe chances to open up and deepen your alliances. Study these words from psychologist Carl Jung: “We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect; we apprehend it just as much by feeling. Therefore, the judgment of the intellect is, at best, only the half of truth, and must, if it be honest, also come to an understanding of its inadequacy.”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “In love there are no vacations. Love has to be lived fully with its boredom and all that.” Author and filmmaker Marguerite Duras made that observation, and now I convey it to you—just in time for a phase of your astrological cycle when boredom and apathy could and should evolve into renewed interest and revitalized passion. But there is a caveat: If you want the interest and passion to rise and surge, you will have to face the boredom and apathy; you must accept them as genuine aspects of your relationship; you will have to cultivate an amused tolerance of them. Only then will they burst in full glory into renewed interest and revitalized passion.
