Ce dernier se révèle être un valet modèle, travailleur et intelligent. Mais Susan, la fiancée de Tony, n'apprécie pas le comportement de Barrett, lui trouvant quelque chose de malsain...

The Servant represents honest work in the field of psychological drama, excellent acting, and very well-shot scenes, but the whole does not work as one would expect. Simply put, the script contains flaws and the characters undergo strange psychological twists and turns, and their development is equally strange and wild. It gets a 3.5-star rating and this time I lean toward the lower end of it. Overall impression: 65%. ()
An interesting movie that does not unfold as you might think. At first, it seems like it might be a comedy about how a servant helps his master, but it quickly turns into a thriller where you don't know what to expect from the servant. But even this is not something that the film truly offers, because it is much more existential. It has the potential for you to discover something new in it after each viewing. ()
