La hija oscura

Olivia Colman gives a powerhouse turn in The Lost Daughter, prickly and combustible as Leda Caruso, a middle-aged languages professor on a working holiday in Greece.

It's a moviegoing experience, sure — and if you need to hear it, one of the best of the year.

...a sophisticated, seductive, slightly unwieldy and often very sad study of the instability and upsets of motherhood.

...it all hangs together and Olivia Colman achieves a subtle sort of grandeur at the end.
