BOFCA REVIEW ROUNDUP: 09/17/2021

Max Harwood leans up against a clothing rack in the musical film Everybody's Talking About JamieEVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE

“Harwood, making his screen debut, instantly becomes an actor we’ll want to look out for in the future. He effortlessly carries the weight of the film from its comic to its emotional elements.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

 

 

Jessica Chastain waves as Tammy Faye Bakker with Andrew Garfield next to her as Jim Bakker in the film The Eyes of Tammy FayeTHE EYES OF TAMMY FAYE

“Chastain depicts Tammy Faye’s essential innocence about the world around her, which didn’t always serve her well, but at times could be disarming. Even with the heavy make-up that would define her for so many, Chastain doesn’t turn the performance into a mockery.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

 

 

Judy Greer stands with her arms crossed looking in a mirror while she wears and old fashioned dress and Melanie Lynskey stands next to her with a bar of soap in her mouth in the movie The Lady of the ManorLADY OF THE MANOR
“LADY OF THE MANOR takes its thin premise–the friendship between a ne’er-do-well modern woman and the 19th century ghost of a proper Southern belle–and spins its wheels for an hour-and-a-half.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
