Onetime enfant terrible of Polish cinema, and subsequently a wobbly emigre auteur in Belgium, the U.K. and U.S., vet Jerzy Skolimowski makes a small but commanding return to roots in obsessive-love drama "Four Nights With Anna." Helmed with absolute assurance [from] the get-go, but still [marbled] with moments of black comedy that faintly recall his younger, wilder works, 



pic has the metaphysical feel and control almost of a story from Krzysztof Kieslowski's "Decalogue" and is [all] the more impressive coming from a filmmaker who's just [turned] 70 and has been absent from the profession for almost two decades. Good reviews, and distinction of being Cannes' Directors' Fortnight opener, should [propel] this to modest business in arthouses worldwide.
