"Pearl is one of my favorite R-rated horror films. I'm drawn to its eerie, absurd atmosphere. I absolutely adore Mia Goth—she's incredibly captivating! She masterfully portrays the contrast between innocence and terror, as well as the depths of mental illness and twisted emotions. The film beautifully captures Pearl's loneliness, repression, and intense desire to escape her mundane life, showing her psychological journey from a dream-filled young girl to a deranged killer. In my own work, I also strive to convey that sense of innocence mixed with eeriness—a dissonance in emotion and atmosphere. That's what attracted me to this film!"
