Review of Margaret (2011) by Michael P — 17 Oct 2011
Kenneth Lonergan's Margaret is a stunning masterpiece. I can't remember the last time I saw such a brilliant film go completely unnoticed by the film community. Its dramatic ambitions and scope exceed those of any recent film I can recall - it is, quite simply, the kind of film I want to make.
A beautiful, sprawling epic that - even in this studio-cut version, decidedly not approved by Lonergan - has a dramatic power missing from nearly all of today's cinema. Margaret is perhaps the most important film release of 2011 - even if it is six years too late.
