This was the one film at the festival I really, really wanted to see, and it didn't disappoint.
Here are some notes I made at work the other day. I'm slipping behind in my reviews cause I'm seeing so many films!
- abrupt start/end - I liked how the film seemed just an excerpt from some lives, nothing showy about it
- the path of emotional destruction wreaked by Nicole Kidman's Margot - this is a fantastic performance by the way, Kidman is really, really good
- one of Baumbach's tropes - kids just discovering sexuality
- sisterhood's underlying and underhanded rivalries
- darkly funny script
- autumnal colours throughout - muted lighting
- reminiscent of Woody Allen's Husbands And Wives
