Review of Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011) by Andri A — 13 Sep 2013
Stunning and effectively disturbing.
Sharp direction, tight script, brilliant acting by Olsen, and a percolating intensity throughout.
This is a nightmare of how ppl get involved in a cult, and some of the worst results.
It draws you in and doesn't let go.
For adults, and not the fragile, several scenes will haunt you long after the end credits.
It's almost too effective and efficient.
