Review of Where'd You Go, Bernadette (2019) by Tvjerry — 16 Aug 2019
Once again, Cate Blanchett goes neurotic as a promising architect whose career is sidelined by raising her daughter (newcomer Emma Nelson, who gives a compelling performance). Director Richard Linklater creates interesting conflicts, while examining family relationships and creative drive.
Even though Blanchett is great to watch, her character borders more on obnoxious than sympathetic. Some of the plot elements feel a bit forced and a few moments seem too pat, but the overall effect is a sweet study of artistic drive and familial love.
NOTE: The final designs are based on a real project.
