Natalie Portman goes mad, but does so very beautifully.
It's no wonder this is an Oscar contender - it's a beautiful movie and so tightly wound you can't relax for a moment. All the performances are eerily great, and the much-touted lesbian sex scene between Portman and Mila Kunis is anything but gratuitous.
It leaves you with a lot of questions, which I imagine is exactly what director Darren Aranofsky intended. I'd classify it as a psycho-thriller with a little bit of horror, but it's so beautifully made it doesn't look like it belongs in that kind of cheesy genre.
Are you saying horror is cheesy??!
ReplyDelete@snowdomes: Sorry, I meant molto formaggio (very cheesy, but doesn't it sound classy now?)
