"Alice, Darling" portrays the impact of psychological and emotional abuse on
a young woman named Alice, without showing the actual abuse. Alice's
relationship with her controlling boyfriend, Simon, takes a toll on her, causing
anxiety, loss of confidence, and physical self-harm.
The film also explores the importance of supportive friendships. Anna
Kendrick gives a subtle yet impactful performance as Alice, inspired by her
personal experience. The only notable misstep is a
tacked-on subplot involving a missing girl. Overall, "Alice, Darling"
is an honest and insightful drama. |
