Review by unclejeff

This Academy Award winner for Best Live Action Short Film was not at all what I was expecting considering the title and synopsis. In its mere 20 minutes, we feel like we get to know the main character, well played by Dizzia, on a rather personal level - more so than many feature-length motion pictures. She loves her husband and children but is just needing something more outside of her role as wife and mother. Even if it's just the excitement of voyeurism. As I said earlier, this is not what you're probably thinking, and I wouldn't dare ruin the unexpected journey this short film takes. Suffice it to say, at the end, you may find yourself not only surprised but moved. It's nothing groundbreaking or revolutionary, and I won't be thinking about it in the weeks and months ahead, but I enjoyed the time I spent with it, and it succeeds in what it's trying to accomplish. Those who have experienced the overwhelming fatigue of family life will likely find much to appreciate here. And relate to. - Jeff Marshall,.
