MISS SLOANE
With the topsy-turvy, emotional election Americans have just experience, the release of Miss Sloane is right on time. Â Not to mention, that this is the performance for which Jessica Chastain will be most remembered for.
As whip-smart, ruthless lobbyist Elizabeth Sloane, Chastain masters and delivers rapid fire dialogue notably associated with celebrated television writer Aaron Sorkin. Â Sloane’s commitment to taking anyone and everyone down, including herself makes for an extremely interesting roller-coaster ride with an ending that smacks you in the face like a ton of bricks!! It’s all done with such an alarming speed, that if one is not paying attention, Â you might miss a clue or two.
Director John Madden has outdone himself on this one assembling one of the most fabulous onscreen cast this awards season. Â The twists and turns are dizzying, yet yummy and fascinating thanks to the brilliant writing skills of John Perera.
Gugu Mbatha-Raw can literally inhabit any type of character in any type of setting with a childlike vulnerability that is beautifully endearing to watch. However, it is layered with a quiet internal strength that took me from having empathy to having admiration.
Allison Pill , Sam Waterston, John Lithgow and the rest of this cast are stellar! Â They not only compliment each other, but are the perfect support for Jessica Chastain.
Miss Sloane gives you an up close view at just how far a lobbyist will go to get what they want.
Miss Sloane can be seen nationwide TODAY.
