Gracie Atherton-Yu and her husband Joe are preparing for the high school graduation of their twins, who will be moving into their dormitory during the summer vacation. Apparently the scandal surrounding the couple, which occurred twenty years ago when Gracie's affair with Joe dominated the front pages of the tabloids, has died down - mainly because Joe is 23 years her junior. Just before they graduate, famous and popular Hollywood actress Elizabeth Berry arrives to spend some time with them, as her next project is based on Gracie's life and she wants to better understand the past and the choices she made for her role.
Their arrival begins to shake the couple, forcing them to confront the realities of life in an empty nest and a significant age difference.
A brilliantly acted, complex and intricate melodrama ... filmstarts
... In addition to Portman and Moore, desire brings out a third star, the childlike husband, to whom Charles Melton gives a fragile and innocent sexiness that, as is a bit of a tradition with Haynes, leaves all the power to the women. They know how to abuse it. critic
