Like its lovely protagonist, Edie Falco’s newest tries to be all things to all people. But this slight but smart comic drama still manages to satisfy, at least some of the time.
There’s something very winning about this comedy of faith. And that something is the chemistry between its two terrific stars, Jason Schwartzman and Carol Kane.
It takes a lot to surprise me, but gotta hand it to Yorgos Lanthimos. Maybe I didn’t always like what I was seeing happen in this trifecta of nastiness, but I surely do appreciate his masterful unpredictability.
