Miss Julie
Description
In 1890, in Fermanagh, during the course of a midsummer night, Julie, the daughter of the Count, an Anglo-Irish aristocrat, attempts to seduce her father';s valet, John. By turns seductive and bullying, savage and tender, their intimacy leads to desperate plans and vision of a life together... Unsure if the morning brings hope or hopelessness, Julie and John find their escape in a final act as sublime and horrific as anything in Greek tragedy.

Chastain is as brittle and fragile a Miss Julie as ever there was.

Miss Julie, directed by Liv Ullmann whose only concern is delivering an honest rendition of August Strindberg, succeeds in doing just that.

Anyone interested in spellbinding performances, however, should see Miss Julie.

It starts off as a will-they-won't-they as to whether Chastain's baron's daughter will sleep with Farrell. It ends up as a will-they-won't-they ever shut up. Should have been called Shouting Miss Julie.

Morton, one of the least artificial actresses in the world, charts her character's heartbreak without any of the self-pity normally assigned to ordinary women.

The film has a singular focus on these characters and their power struggles of class and gender, but fails to ever feel like it's really going anywhere.

The film is visually bland, with only a couple of bookending outdoor sequences around a handful of interior sets.

Miss Julie's acid dialogue and sardonic twists burn down to the bone of costume drama's fattened arm, its darkness closer to original-series Upstairs Downstairs than to polished one-percenter porno Downton Abbey.

What Ullmann's done is create the ideal conditions for these three to do electrifying work with each other. She maintains control so they can lose it.

Altogether, it is a classy production, but it rarely gets past the outward forms and down to the inner truths.

It smoulders and smokes and generates some heat but it never really bursts into flame.

"Miss Julie" is a rather strange experience, with its consistently static medium shots of the three actors, as they roar their lines at one another. But it has an undeniable power.
