Spouses Gracie and Joe are hosting a party, and the guests include a real celebrity—actress Elizabeth. Her next work should be the role of... Gracie, who 20 years ago seduced 13-year-old Joe and married him after a tabloid scandal and time in prison. But does Elizabeth indeed intend to portray Gracie in a positive light?

Shot from May December, 2023

Moore and Portman are tremendous, but it’s Melton’s anguished performance that gives the movie its slow-building emotional power.

— Manohla Dargis, The New York Times

A reality-based drama and at the same time a meta-satire on the media, May December impresses not only with the outstanding performances of the actors, but also with a rare slyness that bewilders the viewer.
