Evocative cinematography that lingers on Rose Byrne throughout allowing all of her acting both subtle and overt to be conveyed. I felt tense throughout, anxious to see how things would continue to develop and unfold as things got more and more overwhelming and out of control.

Never mind a nomination, Rose Byrne should *win* the Oscar for this. The movie’s not *quite* at that level but damn
