Reviews

Margaret review

Actresses soar in chaotic, exhilarating storytelling

Anna Paquin plays a headstrong, fearlessly obnoxious teen in <i>Margaret</i>.

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars

Jake Wilson One of the films of the year, Kenneth Lonergan's sprawling but riveting drama about trauma and youthful idealism in New York City runs for nearly two and a half hours but still leaves you wanting more.

    Matt Damon is the maths teacher. Matthew Broderick is the English Teacher. This movie is great and also hilarious, great job!

    It's definitely Broderick that's reading out King Lear. Damon is in the film as well though.

    I think I caught a fleeting glimpse of Matthew Broderick in there too.

    (Note to site admin - I haven't seen the movie so don't make 'Your rating' a mandatory field!)

    Sorry Sibbu, Matthew Broderick was reciting King Lear, Matt Damon was kissing Paquin on the couch and grading her in the classroom.
