Review of Clouds of Sils Maria (2014) by Craig T — 12 Aug 2015
Olivier Assayas' films are always exceptional at exploring the complexities of the human condition. This is an exceptional display of his gifts -- and those of his leading actor, Juliette Binoche, and the supporting turn by Kristen Stewart.
Stewart's performance is a true game-changer. She can display more than sullen or sulking! She matches the great Binoche at every turn. Most interesting is that their entire relationship is constantly encaging in a sort of "role-play" that evolves to a deeper level.
And, the best sign of any film is when you hate to see it end. I wanted to watch Binoche more. Excellent and consistently surprising.
