Nora lives a perfect life in her perfect home with her perfect husband Helmer. But inside, something feels completely wrong. A nagging doubt has begun to haunt her. Unable to recognize herself, she has begun to long for something she does not know what is. The film is a modern paraphrase of Henrik Ibsen's classic story about Nora and Helmer – a story that, in light of our modern performance-oriented society, has taken on new meaning.
I highly recommend Dark Waters. It’s a highly engrossing picture, which lends itself to cautionary storytelling. The dark information continually grows, inspiring change and accountability altogether. Overall, Haynes’ picture will not be known for its inclusiveness--but it will be known for being a fantastic, engrossing film.
