Carol (2015)
Directed by Todd
Haynes this film based on the novel “The Price of Salt” stars
Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara. In 1950s New York a rich married
woman and a younger woman that works in a department store fall in
love at first sight.
Ground breaking at the
time of it's publication this love story came across as less so in a
modern context and wrapped in a lot of privilege. While the story is
well told and somewhat refreshing in it's tone I am not sure it has
as much impact as some would have you believe. I enjoyed the
performances and the film is well made.
3/5
