Drei Töchter

This a very well-scripted and executed film about an upcoming death in the family, and the abyss that it leaves.. sucking those around to the center of it, for the better.

You know exactly how it is going to end, but it is what it leaves you with that matters! And what it sets out to do, it achieves with masterful craftsmanship by everyone involved.

From giving you a believable semblance of 4 different people's lives, how it captures some gut-wrenching sentiments, pain, the interactions between the well-performed sisters, that awkward feeling of people slotting back into someone else's life, and Natasha Lyonne's stand-out character gettings some kind "redemption" in the end. I also liked the "sound of the city" in the credits.

Very enjoyable! In its own way.

A lovely and beautiful movie about bonds and sisterhood, it makes you think twice about your sister and you can always do better.

This movie shows real sisters that you need to treat your sister better because you don't know the struggles she is facing, you literally dont know your sister darling.

So dont take for granted you relationship with your family ok, this movie has amazing performances by the three leads specially Natasha (she is my choices in the oscars)

And of course the ending scenes are emotional and ignore the review saying that that was unnecessary, he is obviously no director 8/10

Another great movie this 2024.

I love small chamber films where the key elements are acting, the script, and masterful direction. Such films resemble theatrical plays and usually capture the viewer's attention from the very beginning, holding it until the end.

«HIS THREE DAUGHTERS» is just such a film.

This is a wonderful family drama with brilliant performances by all three main actresses. Seriously, I think they all deserve at least an Oscar nomination. They are the main reason why this movie turned out so well; their chemistry on screen is just off the charts.

Additionally, the skillfully written script, excellent dialogue, and the development of each sister make the on-screen action incredibly interesting and exciting. Each main character is completely different, with her own life and unique problems that the viewer begins to understand throughout the film. It is impossible not to sympathize with each sister; every character is well-crafted, compelling, and powerfully portrayed!

I give my highest recommendations to all lovers of chamber films and powerful acting.

8/10

P. S. Elizabeth Olsen is a Goddess!

The film begins with Katie, portrayed by Carrie Coon, trying to convince her sister Rachel, played by Natasha Lyonne, that their father is dying and it's time to step up and take responsibility for him. Katie believes that what's happened in the past should stay in the past, and now they need to come together for their father in his final days. Their other sister, Christina, played by Elizabeth Olsen, is emotionally unraveling as she witnesses their father's deteriorating condition. After a heartfelt conversation, the sisters agree to put aside their differences and stay together by their father's deathbed, giving their dysfunctional family one more chance, for the sake of their father. This is the core premise of His Three Daughters.

Each of the three sisters has a distinct personality. Katie, seemingly the eldest, is constantly worried and often critical of Rachel, her adopted sister, particularly because of Rachel's struggles with addiction. On the other hand, Christina is the most caring and gentle, showing compassion to everyone around her. By now, you've probably guessed the tone of this film. It's a slow-paced drama that takes its time, with long scenes and lots of dialogue. Most of the movie happens inside one house, with just a few characters talking to each other. For a movie like this, the acting really needs to shine, or it can easily lose the audience's attention. Luckily, that's not an issue here. The cast does an amazing job, completely owning their roles and bringing real emotion to the screen. Each actor gets their character, and they stick to it, making sure the movie stays interesting even during the quieter moments.

I love dysfunctional family movies-they're my favorite genre. The last one I watched like this was Marriage Story, and I absolutely loved it. This movie, though, was just okay for me. It's not a masterpiece, but it's not bad either. It's a decent film that tells the story it wants to tell and does it well enough. But unlike Marriage Story, it's not something I'd call a favorite or feel the need to watch over and over again. But that's just me. This movie is getting a lot of praise worldwide, and people who love this kind of film are really into it. If you're not into slow-paced movies, you might find it a bit boring, but it's still worth giving a shot. Honestly, it's a great movie to watch on a cold, rainy night, snuggled up under a blanket. Definitely worth checking out.

Interesting choice of title. Showing that even if we mainly see the daughters of a dying man, the man is centric to the story because he is the reason, and only he, why we see them interact with each other in this dramatic point of their life.

Also, it is interesting to me how at first they seemed so different from each other, with distinct personalities and by the end they blend - not much, but at least their personalities are more into one - with their common goal sinking in. That's why their bond will be stronger after.

Great acting from the three leads but with no moments of brilliance.

Just a sad showcase of the power of grief and all its steps. Not a movie one can enjoy, let's say, but one you can appreciate.
