Pablo Trapero's beautifully crafted multilayered drama that's also his most enjoyable film in years.
Even when it inspires laughter it doesn't inspire much else. It isn't involving enough for you to ever truly care about how these many, many problems will resolve themselves, and not funny enough for the experience to be more enjoyable.
Trapero's ambitious attempt to strike a unique tone somewhere between serious drama and humorous daytime TV falls awkwardly flat.
A family drama with three great actresses. [Full review in Spanish]
Uncomfortable, provocative, and audacious. [Full Review in Spanish]
But the heartlessness of the film's spoiled sisters is not as despicable as it is pitiful, since it speaks to the callous constructions of Trapero himself.
dark and mysterious... the male gaze was a bit heavy handed
...a well-made, well-acted bit of film festival tedium.
This may be a new beginning for a filmmaker who has forever been linked to social realism.
At heart, the film makes us ponder over the thin line between a "normal" family and a dysfunctional one. Who gets to decide? Not the viewer, for sure.
With a trio of such fine actresses as Martina Gusman, Bérénice Bejo and Graciela Borges centre stage, it's hard to fathom why Trapero needs to resort to over-ripe confection.
The film seems to take its time to retrace the story that will prevail, but always with Mia and Eugenia as central characters. [Full review in Spanish]
