Inmates on the remote island of Gorgona, Europe's last agricultural penal colony. They farm the land, care for the animals, hoping for a second chance at life. Through a precise observation of the place and a select group of its people, the film invites viewers to reflect on the role of prison as punishment vs. rehabilitation.
The film does not add anything to its own conversation or genre, and falls flat once it’s about to end and must declare some sort of conclusion.
'The Lost Daughter' doesn't paint over the choices Leda and Nina make as mothers as right or wrong but examines the messy in-between.
Its predictability shouldn’t distract from the enjoyment that the pure cinematic imagination behind the camera elicits. It is a movie of crises both moral and mortal, oozing with CGI, and thoroughly enjoyable.
The film basically says she was a lost cause from the start. We don't get a sense of who Marilyn was.
I love The Last Jedi. I don’t think there has been a Star Wars movie in quite some time that brought something new, something fresh to the table.
