Almost immediately into After the Hunt, you can tell that director Luca Guadagnino took inspiration from Woody Allen, even in the fonts used in the title cards. It’s obviously a deliberate choice from Guadagnino, toying with the numerous accusations that have been levied upon Allen, but it’s also letting the audience know that it is not presenting its subject matter as just a black-and-white issue. Similarly to how Todd Field‘s Tárdissected the downfall of its esteemed and established title character, After the Hunt doesn’t want the audience to root for or against its embattled central character; it wants you to just be a fly on the wall.
