Death is impossible. It’s a door that you keep waiting to swing open, announcing the entrance of a dinner date who never arrives, or the recurring dream of a person whose prolonged absence makes their face appear fuzzy. For director David Cronenberg, death is a muse, and his grief is the driving force behind his latest masterpiece. The Shrouds is a movie that seeks solace through modern technology, and hopes to provide an answer to the timeless question: Can art serve as an act of catharsis?

Don’t try to outrun your pain: It will come back to haunt you, and it will most likely happen while you’re wearing a shirt adorned with your own face.
