A Jewish girl in 19th century London becomes a great actress, through a hard apprenticeship in the theater.

Sinekatalog’s take

Arnaud Desplechin's French-British drama, with Summer Phoenix and Ian Holm, is long and intense, a study of acting and obsession.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
