The target audience should be parents
Chronology
A woman puts her career on hold to become a stay-at-home mom, but soon her family takes a surreal turn. It was originally slated to stream on Hulu, but strong reception from test screenings prompted Searchlight Pictures to release it in wide theatrical distribution instead.. Saturday Night Live Credit: Jean Smart/Jelly Roll (2024). Riding Carousel"Performed by Alexander McCabe, written by Alexander McCabe. Overall the movie is good but I was expecting it to be darker and gruesome rather than comedic.
Adams is undeniably amazing
Although I am not currently a parent, I can totally relate to the topics presented. If you have any questions about motherhood and female rage, you might find this movie insightful. The script is also well written; some of the characters’ dialogues are very sharp. Mariel Heller is definitely a talented female director who can turn a seemingly impossible book into a successful film. This is the best performance I’ve seen from him so far, and possibly the best performance I’ve seen this year.
It’s a career-defining performance
Wild, brave and funny. He really gives himself to the role. The depth of her performance is evident in the intricate details of her facial expressions, which convey her anger, joy and pain beautifully. Addams embodies the role of mother with an authenticity that resonates deeply, possibly stemming from her real life as a mother. This personal connection boosts your performance and also makes you feel close and real.
No, definitely not
I can’t help but feel a strong connection between her image and my own mother, as if she captures the essence of a mother’s love and sacrifice in a way that really speaks to me. This movie seems to be controversial so far. I’ve seen some dismiss her performance, and many feel that Adams shouldn’t win or even get a nomination for this odd role. For me, acting awards are always based on a performance, not a film. He is the vehicle of the film.
Also, Scoot McNairy is fantastic
You should definitely be nominated or even win. The passion doesn’t have to go away. I hope more people recognize and see my points. Despite the few flaws, the film is worth watching.
