Portman deserved the best actress for this film, Emma Stone was incredible but the depth and research for Jackie is beyond description. This is one of those inspired character studies that grabs you by the throat from the beginning, that film score is haunting.

Larrain was the correct filmmaker for this film, his touches are all over the film, each choice is inspired and precise. This is actually a very good companion piece to JFK by Oliver Stone, but I won't let that distract me from the film at hand.

I had put this film off for no good reason, it is incredible and largely ignored by the awards. Portman is at the height of her talents here and you won't be disappointed by the detail and care taken to bring us a film that showcases such a famous figure.
