Undescribable Perfection
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
