Review of Beautiful Kate (2009) by Giuliana L — 19 Feb 2012
This film deals with some taboo subjects in a surprisingly gentle way. Even if some scenes are profoundly uncomfortable to watch, the film's narrative makes sense out of what shouldn't make sense.
It's easy to see that Kate's pain and loneliness at losing her mother drives her reckless behavior. The mystery of a decades-old family drama is slowly revealed throughout the film, with a hopeful resolution and redemption in sight.
I really liked Mendelsohn's performance and Rachel Ward's direction.
