i'm fairly new to the film industry despite having watched so many movies and i'm starting to come to terms with the fact that not every film has to have a grand plot with a crazy climax and ending for it to be considered phenomenal. this is one of those films where the cinematography, writing, directing, acting, and simply the story in and of itself is enough to make it such a captivating and enjoyable film to watch. also dakota is so damn stunning its ridiculous read more

as excelentes atuações das ledas é o que compensam, principalmente da madura, o enredo pode ser mais significativo para mulheres, pela questão da maternidade, mas há outras nuances interessantes. o clima de tensão que o longa quis criar, pra mim foi desnecessário, e acho que até negativo, os conflitos internos e comparações entres as duas já seriam suficientes. read more
