Review of Jackie (2016) by Jess_Hill — 20 Jan 2017
This is a magnificent film made all the more poignant and heartbreaking on the eve of the inauguration tomorrow. Portman is superb, it's beautifully shot and carefully edited, with a script which is delivered with subtle excellence from the entire cast.
The score is used expertly and sparingly, with long stretches of silence exacerbating the brittle tension at the heart of the film. This is not a film you'd say you like, exactly, but it is one you say is breathtaking.
9.01.
