Review of Carol (2015) by Kelvin W — 07 Jan 2016
Not everyone will enjoy the pacing of the film, but it will be hard not to feel entranced by the excellent costume and set design, use of color, cinematography, and music. The style and dialogue are meticulously constructed, serving to enhance the feelings and emotional bond between Carol and Therese.
Speaking of the characters, both actresses spark fine-tuned performances that allure the audience into their taboo and complex world of attraction, perfectly complementing the dreamlike yet broken state of its era.
Overall, Carol is a slow-burning experience that pays off in its subtle details and emotional ending.
