The filmmaker, working from a script by Samy Burch and Alex Menchanik, finds wry humor in the soap opera nature of the tale. It’s a morally ambiguous, gorgeously realized character study. It’s so good to have Todd Haynes back. Read more

May December is nooit oprecht, menselijk of diepgaand; is niet doordacht, intelligent of provocerend - al doet het lijken alsof het dat wel is. Read more
