The second part of Hogg’s portrait of the artist as a privileged young woman leaves behind the tragic element, which gave The Souvenir a modicum of depth, to focus on the difficulties of transforming one's life experience into pretentious, solipsistic art. One of the only subjects less interesting than the life of a film student is the life of a wealthy film student.
