  • In a brief but haunting image toward the end of this film, a brilliantly white swan moves across the surface of a dark, forbidding loch surrounded by steep, brooding hills. It seemed to sum up both the film and the titular character nicely - a lone wild creature traversing a hostile environment. For this is Hallam Foe and his journey, a luminous, wayward spirit moving through the dark recesses of his own psyche amid a hostile environment.
