Review of Tell It to the Bees (2019) by Simran Hans for The Observer (UK) — 21 Jul 2019
Grainger (soon to be seen in Sophie Hyde’s brilliant, jagged Animals) is a magnetic and sensual foil to the frowning, reliably expressive Paquin. The flirty tension between the two feels quietly credible, the camera occasionally shuddering with desire.
A pity, then, that this sweetness is lost as the film makes a tonal swerve in its final third.
