A Woman Under the Influence 1974
i was struck by how much love mabel has to give and how desperately she wants someone—anyone—to receive it. but no one except her kids will take it. everyone else sees her as abnormal, something to be fixed. there’s a scene where she gathers the children to dance swan lake, completely swept up in the moment, her enthusiasm big and theatrical, full of joy. but the father who just stopped by to drop off his kids doesn’t see it that…

The Worst Person in the World 2021
"You seem to be waiting for something. I don't know what."
“I feel like a spectator in my own life. Like I’m playing a supporting role in my own life.”Joachim Trier’s screenplay understands, deeply and authentically, the insecurities, the messiness, the overwhelming decisions we all face while trying to carve out our place in the world.

Babygirl 2024
“You’re confusing ambition with morality.”
Nicole Kidman is erotic and vulnerable as “Babygirl”. She showcases the duality of power & vulnerability as her character goes on a journey of self discovery that she describes as “stakes”, that satisfy her fantasies. Kidman & Dickinson burn with passion as their chemistry lights fire in every scene. The latter arguably delivers his best performance thus far. The audience never knows what Samuel’s true intentions are, thanks to Harris’ delivery & portrayal.
