Review of Carol (2015) by Ruthie Flynn M — 23 Jan 2016
Beautiful to look at but lacks real depth. The viewer is kept at arms length from both of the women and you never get a sense of what really makes them tick. The film shows a view from the outside, figuratively and literally, through numerous foggy and rain sprinkled windows.
It's difficult to care about either character as neither is humanized. It takes more than a pretty face, marvelous clothing and classic cars to pull off a true quality film. This one falls short.
