Bening was great but the beat-you-over-the-head HISTORY IS HAPPENING was too corny for my tastes.
We also watched it this week. A big, fat yawn all the way through. I don’t remember anything beyond the fact that she smoked?
Yeah it was weird, the individual scenes had some absolutely stunning writing and acting--Bening and the kid's fights were great--but it didn't really build to anything? What a waste.
:shake:
I'm right about this.

re: Vox Lux/Her Smell
They do tread similar ground, and at the end of the day I'd agree that the only thing special about either one of them is the lead performance. That said, I saw them both around the same time and right now I can still vividly recall elements of what Moss did, but I can't say the same for Vox Lux. Moss was great

Yeah she really went for it. Since the pandemic started i saw The Invisible Man, Shirley and Her Smell and she was incredible on all of them.

Have you seen Invisible Man? She is super good there. Acting mostly by herself.

It was okay. Theron was good, Layne was quite bad, some of it was really corny but not an unenjoyable action movie.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
