“mother!” by Aronofsky: selfishness and sacrifice
Darren Aronofsky presented his new film on the 5th September at Venice film festival. I have attended a press screening. The movie was firstly booed and after celebrated by the journalists.
As all the movies by Darren Aronofsky, mother! has a lot of levels of comprehension – metaphoric, biblical, symbolic… In his new film he tried to highlight the main human sins and virtues as a selfishness and sacrifice.
The cinematography is gorgeous. Aronofsky was determined to shoot the film exclusively from mother’s/muse’s point-of-view. Tender and charming Jennifer Lawrence is brilliant in the role of woman, wife, mother and muse.
Release Date: 15 September 2017.
