Rating: C+
Commentary: The color is a nice change of pace, but the design work is completely unengaging. Mother and child in a typical embrace without a shred of emotion may work in relation to the film, but most casual observers aren’t going to be that interested. 		Rating: B+
Commentary: Tilda Swinton looks terrific in the film, which is its biggest selling point. However, the unusual dynamic of mother-child dislike and distrust is an interesting subject that may draw a few curiosity seekers to the theater.

Oscar Chances: Swinton is earning strong notices for her performance and is one of the contenders for this year’s Best Actress nomination. Screenwriting is the film’s only other real shot.
