Take This Waltz

Running time: 116 minutes

Director: Sarah Polley

Starring: Michelle Williams, Seth Rogen, Sarah Silverman, Luke Kirby

After her moving 2006 directorial debut AWAY FROM HER, Sarah Polley returns with this sensitive study of a woman in crisis. Following a chance meeting while on holiday, married late-twenty-something Margot (Williams) develops an obsession with Daniel (Kirby), a struggling artist and rickshaw driver who also happens to live at the end of her street.

Unsure whether to risk everything, including an apparently happy marriage with loveable chef Lou (Rogen), Margot struggles with her feelings and the attentions of Daniel as her life and everything she has built slowly unravels. Exploring similar themes to the 2010 hit BLUE VALENTINE, and with an astute understanding of the frustrations that come with even the happiest of relationships, this mature, beautifully acted drama is a must-see for anyone who has ever fallen in (and out of) love.
