Review of The Wife (2017) by Bhbarry — 25 Aug 2018
“The Wife” stars Glenn Close and Jonathan Pryce in a film directed by Bjorn Runge, based on the novel by Meg Wolitazer and a screenplay written by Jane Anderson. The film examines the life and history of a couple married for almost 40 years and how a prestigious literary award impacts upon and affects their lives and those in their family.
Ms. Close is at her finest and gives the audience the gift of portraying feelings and emotions more from her deep and expressive eyes than paragraphs of spoken dialogue she could ever physically utter.
I give the film a 9 and recommend it to all who enjoy a well directed movie, a quality script and acting performances that do it all justice.
