Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
A young woman in her 20s is a clerk working in a Manhattan department store and dreaming of a more fulfilling life when she meets Carol, an alluring woman trapped in a loveless, convenient marriage. As an immediate connection sparks between them, the innocence of their first encounter dims and their connection deepens.
""Carol" reconstructs New York in the 1950's incredibly well, from the scene details to the prejudice that punishes two women for expressing their love for each other. Cate Blanchett is extraordinary in her performance, bringing all the flirting, romance and drama that the film requires."
