Winter Sleep (2014) Review: Ceylan’s Palme d’Or in a Cappadocia Hotel

★★★★☆ 4/5

Haluk Bilginer as a retired actor who owns the rooms and the arguments — a 196-minute moral weather system, and still the peak of contemporary Turkish cinema on Celluloid.

Essential for anyone who wants Turkish cinema beyond the popular comedies — demanding, and worth it.
