Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett are two schoolteachers locked in a battle of wits. Both actresses command your attention. You cannot look away, no matter how uncomfortable things get.

One of those films where the acting is just…perfect.
Was this your first review? I should make an effort to watch it.
You should. It’s an amazing movie.
No, but for the time being, it’s the first one I bothered to transfer. I was reviewing movies on Flixter long before I started my blog.
I just finished watching this movie. I had trouble watching it, because it was so uncomfortable (as you mentioned), but I loved it.

Great review, I never knew Judi Dench could be so creepy until I watched this, she is simply chilling.
Yup, one of her best performances.
