Review of Big Eyes (2014) by Manofthemoon — 11 Jan 2015

Accepting the fact that, as with most biopics, once you've seen them, you've seen them and don't really need to see them again, "Big Eyes" is a touching rendition of the story of artist Margaret Keane and the decade long abuse she suffered at the hands of her husband, including him taking credit for all of her work.

Amy Adams gives a strong performance as Margaret, but Christoph Waltz's shtick is already wearing thin. "Big Eyes" is a restrained, and better for it, Tim Burton film, subtly shot and intended.

Worth watching.
