Review of The Wife (2017) by Peter W — 08 Sep 2018
It's Nobel Prize time and the Castelmans are on their way to Stockholm to pick up his Literature Prize. From the outset, the relationship of man and wife is complex- at moments warm and playful, at others isolated and dark.
In other words- realistic. But secrets twist around this couple like snakes in a garden and strike at unlikely moments. The acting for the most part was right on the mark, though the biographer was too slimy to be good.
Loved the piece because it was a movie for adults- complex, layered, and dealt with big themes.
