Review of Gloria Bell (2019) by Tvjerry — 25 Mar 2019

Julianne Moore plays a divorcée who sings in her car and loves to dance. Her days are spent at work and attempting to interact with her children. One nite, she meets John Turturro and they plunge into a romantic affair.

Then things get complicated…otherwise, there wouldn't be a movie. This is a character study that allows Moore to act (although not as intensely as in Still Alice), while exploring family, sex and relationships on a mature level.

It's enjoyable to watch her work, but the movie's narrative sometimes gets a bit ragged and is never really that compelling. I would expect this will appeal to women who can relate to her situation in life.
