Earlier this year in April ‘All about Nina’ had been played in the Tribeca Film festival. You best believe that people who attended that screening had already become huge fans. Articles surrounding the movie after its trailers when released to the general public had only praises for the director and the actor of the film.
All Set For Oscar?
The movie has already been dubbed as an Oscar-winning performance just after the release of the trailers. Critics and Journalists at the film screening say that the movie not only features award-winning acting but also an amazing direction by Eva Vives. The duo has made a film that has the potential of winning an Oscar. It’s a dark comedy that will leave you in tears of laughter and with the ugly truths of life.
In The Shoes Of A Comedian
Mary Elizabeth Winstead plays the role of Nina Geld, a self-made successful stand-up comedian. This funny and witty comedy-drama is about this comedian who’s doing so well in her career but has a mess of her life. She’s cryptic and has a self-destructive nature that ultimately leads her to face the truth. Reviews say that this could possibly be Winstead’s best performance in her career.
Harsh Truths Of Life
The film revolves around the character’s career and personal life. Nina Geld is a stand-up comedian whose career has taken off. The only problem being she’s an alcoholic and in an abusive relationship with a married cop. To have a fresh start, she decides to move to L.A where she meets a nice man who intrigues her. Despite the film being about a comedian, it is hardly a laughing matter. It creates a very nice and subtle hint at how the comedy of the character masks her internal demons. The movie progresses to show her troubled past and the final scene in which she faces the truth.
A Cast Worth The Hype
It’s a perfect mix of comedy and drama woven together. The supporting cast has also done their work splendidly well. Although the movie truly focuses on Nina Geld, the supporting casts create a perfect ensemble of complementary characters.
The movie is surely worth the hype, and we will experience life from the shoes of a millennial stand-up comedian and watch the movie unravel beautifully. Fans just cannot wait and neither can we!
