The Portrait is a 2023 British psychological thriller film starring Natalia Cordova-Buckley, Ryan Kwanten, Isidora Goreshter, Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Virginia Madsen.
Directed by Simon Ross, in his feature debut, and written by David Griffiths, the plot is about a wife accidentally causing her husband's brain injury and being haunted by a portrait that resembles him.
After Sofia causes her husband Alex's accident that leaves him with a brain injury, she becomes fixated on a mysterious portrait that bears a striking resemblance to his former self.
Natalia Cordova-Buckley, Ryan Kwanten, Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Virginia Madsen were cast in lead roles.
[10] Phil Hoad of The Guardian gave the film a score of three out of five and writing, "While this gothic chestnut, and the psychodrama that follows—with Sofia unsure how much is the product of her own under-siege mind—feel familiar, Ross injects them with a troubling inner turbulence that bodes well for him".
