When Mira (Jessica Chastain) returns from a business trip with a crushing revelation, she and Jonathan (Oscar Isaac) struggle to process the complicated aftershock. (Home Box Office)
Reviews (1)
Breathtaking dialogue improvisation in the director's tightly grasped concept of analysing the breakdown of a relationship. Precisely delivered by both leads, the emotions bubble non-stop and when it gets to be too much, Hagai Levi intersperses it with some brief camera shots of a snowy cold Boston, enhanced by a depressingly cut single-note musical theme. Purist, simple, maximally effective. ()
