An anxiety ridden existential melodrama about a woman stuck at a red light for what feels like a lifetime.
We’ve all felt “stuck” in life, so what better way to show this existential panic than by literally having a woman parked at a red light for an ostensible eternity. Red Light is essentially a one woman show effortlessly transitions from one fictional life event to the next.
But, Red Light is more than just a showpiece for a talented performer. The film straddles both comedy and drama. While there is an inherent ridiculousness (and surrealism) to a stoplight that won’t ever seem to change and Tulock’s impressions and lines, at times, are clearly comedic, the film is full of an underlying feeling of sadness—this wistful notion that a fulfilled life is slowly drifting away from one’s grasp, having settled for the most boring, predictable path possible.
