Review of Carol (2015) by Nico S — 20 Feb 2016

This film is very aesthetically pleasing and thoughtful, particularly the shots of them together and apart. The outline of the whole plot is nothing we haven't seen before, therefore it's kinda predictable.

Also it gets very repetitive (will they/won't they). The performances on the other hand are breath taking. Cate Blanchet and Rooney Mara were perfect together, not for one second did I believe they didn't love each other, their chemistry in the film had the power to duck the viewer in and really anchor this movie.
