 Based on Peter Turner’s memoir, the film follows the playful but passionate relationship between Turner (Jamie Bell) and the eccentric Academy Award winner, Gloria Grahame (Annette Bening). What starts as a vibrant affair between the legendary femme fatale and her younger lover, quickly grows into a deeper relationship. It’s a classic weepy with some killer dialogue, but Bening is the big sell here. Given one of the juiciest roles of her career, she makes every moment count.
