À Londres, Tony, un aristocrate jeune et brillant, vivant dans une luxueuse demeure du XVIIIè siècle, engage Hugo Barrett comme domestique. 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 film that doesn't turn out the way you'd think. At first, it seems like it might even be a comedy about how the servant will help the master, but it quickly turns into a thriller where you don't know what to expect from the servant at all. But even this isn't something that the film truly gives you, because this is much more existential. It has the potential to make you discover something new every time you watch it.
