Review of Diane (2019) by Everett — 17 Jun 2020

The performances are terrific, and it's great to see an abundance of older female actors. I wish they'd been better served by the script, which is uneven. At times it works, but suffers from implausibility, confusing elements, and conflict choices that are unoriginal and - again - implausible as they play out.

While I appreciate the opportunity for Mary Kay Place and her supporting cast, it made me wonder if the writer understands women as much as he thinks he does.
