Don't do it. Screaming in the dark.
Mississippi-born American filmmaker Tom Moore has worked all his life on the most famous and beloved series, but there is one film he has made in his career. This movie was the explosion of the year.
A drama titled 'Goodnight, Mom' an incredibly powerful and tearing story. Here they film the famous play that won the Pulitzer Prize. Playing two main female roles in this colloquial film, the two American actresses are highly respected, and both have interesting and multifaceted acting careers. Both have Oscars, and they have received recognition of their skills.
Jesse lives with her mother Thelma. Her life is gray and often feels like hell. She is divorced, her personal life has long been forgotten, Jesse also has epilepsy, and often has seizures. Her son is a drug addict who has already stopped helping, because he is hopeless. Resented by life, a tired woman decides to die, and her mother has a couple of hours to convince her of this. . .
The late-night, conversational film was amazing. This is a movie for me, and I am convinced that this is the top of cinema. The picture is true, as if we had seen the real story. Theatrical play successfully found life in the cinema, and this film definitely has its value. I loved the atmosphere of the film, the tension and the constant anxiety. What a stream of words, this speech, this acting.
The main roles here were played by Sissy Spacek and Anne Bancroft. The most powerful game of actresses, and their duet turned out to be famous. Such a clean and sincere game of Bancroft - just bpvo. Her heart broke as she desperately tried to help, find the right words, and save her daughter from a terrible act. I always remember Anne from the cult film with Dustin Hoffman 'The Graduate'. The role of Thelma here she was very much, which was noted by critics, nominating Bancroft for the Golden Globe.
In this film, the game of Sissy Spacek was ignored by the Academy, although in the same 1986 she still played in another film ' Crimes of the Heart' for the role of one of the sisters received a Golden Globe, and another Oscar nomination. Of course, this is a rare case: in one year to nominate an actress for her two roles at the Globe and the Oscars, but I think it should have been done.
Her Jesse actress plays with such pain, so subtle and dramatic that there are no words. Sissy Spacek shows the pinnacle of acting, and was on equal terms with her partner in the film.
Watching this movie makes me want to scream. Unbearable pity the girl from this story, and more than anything in the world I want to help her: to save her, to lend a helping hand. Such a strong effect of this story gives us two good actresses.
'Goodnight, Mother' is a 1986 American psychological drama. Provocative, tragic film turned out to be an ideal conversational film, and the attention of fans of the genre, as well as a positive assessment definitely deserves. Thank you.
Jesse, open the door.
- Good night, Mother.
