Kristoffer Borgli’s new film, “The Drama,” follows engaged couple Emma and Charlie (Zendaya and Robert Pattinson) as their lives unravel after a seemingly harmless game. Similar to Borgli’s American debut, “Dream Scenario,” which explored the downsides of sudden fame for Nicolas Cage’s character, “The Drama” focuses on public humiliation. The film kicks off when their friends, Rachel and Mike (Alana Haim and Mamoudou Athie), insist they each reveal their most shameful act. A particularly tense and chaotic scene involves a drunken confession, expertly fueled by Alana Haim’s character, leading to an emotional outburst of tears and vomiting.
