Carol



Living in a 1950s society that considers lesbian romance taboo, two women from disparate backgrounds- young store clerk Therese Belinet and wealthy socialite Carol Aird-- develop an attachment to each other that ultimately turns passionate.  The acting is outstanding and I can see why it has Academy buzz.  However, the final scene is very French.  I felt a little unfulfilled.  I give it an 8.  Stars Cate Blanchett, Rooney Mara.
