You will feel your heart hurt

Rating: 9/10 (6 December 2019)

Since seeing the trailer at the cinema I have been looking forward to watching this. What an astonishing film. Your heart will break and you will cry your eyes out at the pain you witness Nicole and Charlie going through. The score by Randy Newman is masterfully played, touching, but not overbearing in any way. Adam Driver is a tour de force as a man whose life is falling apart and Scarlett Johansson is raw as a woman who wants to find her own voice. With superb supporting performances from the great Laura Dern and Ray Liotta as the lawyers they never originally wanted, this is a must see film. I hope it is richly rewarded come awards season.
