Character study at it's finest. Very interesting dynamics between the members of the family and a script that creates a weird circumstance between Portman and Moore's characters that kept me glued to the screen. Strong themes of trauma and morality. ***May December*** poses interesting questions on age gap relationships(?) It has a lot to say and demands a second viewing to get all the symbolisms. I kinda didn't want it to end, that's how interesting I found it.

Filled with visually creative shots like the mirror scene at the beginning with Natalie Portman between two Julianne Moore's, one of my favorites. One of the best scores i've heard this year, nicely done lighting, atmospheric, lots of tension and three awesome performances (favorite was Natalie Portman, I watched that monologue three times). A weird tone for the subject matter that could totally be off-putting for some but for me... it works! I wanted more of a confrontation towards the end, something more memorable, but the character arcs and themes did come full circle and that's satisfying.
