Haven't seen Safe in almost exactly twenty years; I checked the Blu-Ray out of the library. In certain shots Moore looks like the alien from the Sigourney Weaver flicks.
The only element that's didactic is the synth score.

if safe were made today -- and set in the present day, or even in the very recent past -- i'm sure the governing metaphor would have to do with the internet and surveillance.

Dottie should be after I'm not there and Far from heaven tbh. I was being a little too hardcore there although Dottie is excellent.

Todd Haynes is already planning his next foray into sumptuously photographed dissatisfied women. According to IndieWire, the director is planning a TV limited series based on The Source Family, the real-life hippie cult profiled in the 2013 documentary of the same name.

“Amazon Studios is nearing a deal to finance, produce and distribute writer-director Todd Haynes‘s Wonderstruck, which will reunite the director with Julianne Moore,” reports TheWrap‘s Jeff Sneider. “Based on the children’s novel by The Invention of Hugo Cabret author Brian Selznick, Wonderstruck follows the intertwined narratives of two deaf children, Ben and Rose. Ben lives with his family in Minnesota in 1977, when a mysterious note prompts him to run off to New York following his mother’s death. Rose, who is locked in a house in 1927 New Jersey, also escapes to New York to see her idol, film actress Lillian Mayhew.”

The spectrum of the Wonderstruck reviews is pretty fascinating, from "his worst" to "the film he was born to make."
