A marriage story

Rating: 8/10 (23 February 2020)

The story of a woman married into a system and the pressures and frustrations that she faces beautifully depicted by Kate Winslet with a husband who is young and energetic, not as sensitive as his wife. Their brief flirtation with fantasy and how they are brought down to earth by a pregnancy unwanted, and how it is embedded in Kate as well as in her and his Psych and how devastating words uttered in frustration can be. Compares very well with the more recent 'Marriage Story' but much more I tense. Apt characterisation as well as excellent editing and the use of symbolism are the hallmarks of this film. A must watch for everyone. especially married couples
