This is an interesting story, which I think works better on the stage than in the film version. However, Rooney Mara was able to appear again, and she is simply great as an actress. The story isn't bad, but I was expecting the reveal of the relationship between the characters to be a bit sharper, more interesting, grittier, or just something that would take my breath away.
