Alice, Darling


After a run of average films, it was good to watch something better. I suspect that this film is more of a female than a male film, the topic being psychological abuse in a relationship. In my job, I have come across victims of this, but for obvious reasons, the victims prefer not to see someone male.

It does deal with a lot of the issues which are present, the victim being socially isolated, made to feel that they don’t deserve to be loved, the need not to risk offending the partner through others taking an interest in the victim and so much else. I would not rate this as a great film, but is is the best one since last weekend.
