This movie sucks you in and you're entangled in the web so right you can't breathe! Mothers and Daughters. Fame and jealousy. How does one mothers dream become a generational nightmare? This movie reminds me a lot of Black Swan, with the mother trying to control her daughter, trying to live vicariously through her, although it takes a more fascinating twist. If you are triggered by self-harm you may want to skip this one. But this film is so incredibly well done. The pacing never lets up from the beginning to the end. The acting by the lead is superb, and so powerful. As a mother, we want everything for our daughters. We want them to grow up to be successful and have a better life than we did. But we can't control them without destroying them. It's a fine line between love and suffocation.
