'Sanatorium Under The Sign Of The Hourglass' Review: The Brothers Quay Return

Two decades after their last feature film, the Brothers Quay have returned to theaters with another adaptation of the work of Polish author Bruno Schulz. Sanatorium Under The Sign Of The Hourglass could most succinctly be described as the story of a man who travels to a sanatorium, where his dead father is still able to exist due to the nature of time within its walls. But it goes further than that, bringing in seemingly unrelated imagery like a box of mirrors in which one can see the final memories of a preserved eye.
