Jonathan Glazer’s latest film, The Zone of Interest, which deservedly won an Oscar for the Best Inter national Feature (with another for Best Sound), is a truly extraordinary achievement, quietly dazzling in a way diametrically opposed to Nolan’s majestic feat in Oppenheimer – although both are, in their different ways, historical epics. If Oppenheimer is all about the ups and downs of a genius figuring out the huge issues of war and peace attached to his discoveries, The Zone of Interest takes the domestic sphere as its arena and in this mundane setting the viewer is brought right up against how evil operates insidiously in full sunlight and glorious views of rolling countryside.
