Deep fractures within a family dynamic begin to surface during a getaway to the Isles of Scilly.
My review · Reviewed 03/25/2022
I get that the film is meant to be analogous to painting a picture. My problem with the movie is that there was nothing really compelling about the movie. I kind of felt how the hired help probably felt - it seemed as though the family (and their issues) were not accessible to me. Sure, I could gather the struggles that were going on (and the history behind them) - they just seemed to be off in the distance. I think that fact reduced the impact of the director's attempt to paint her picture. It felt like this film was done better in Woody Allen's Interiors.
