"Disobedience"
May. 24th, 2021 11:49 pmI think I was outside too much today; I got a headache. Abbie wanted to lie down in the back yard, so I sat in the shade and I finished reading "The Secret to Superhuman Strength," which I liked.
Today's queer movie from the library was:
"Disobedience" (2017).
Rachel Weisz plays Ronit, the daughter of a prominent rabbi who has just died. She returns to the Jewish orthodox community in London, a community which she walked away from, to mourn. She reconnects with her best friends from childhood, Dovid and Esti. Slowly we learn that Esti and Ronit were a couple in the past, and they still have feelings for each other. The three friends are caught up by the demands of their religion and their community, and by their complicated feelings for each other.
This was a bit slow at times but I really liked it.
