The people you meet change your life—sometimes on purpose. In The Shape of Things, a dark romantic comedy by writer-director Neil LaBute, Evelyn, an MFA student does just that. Like a dark mirror to the classic myth Pygmalion, Evelyn's relationship with her classmate Adam transforms him, physically and mentally—and not always for the better. For mature audiences only.
