JiIl (writer/director Marianna PaIka), a lonely, unfuIfilled housewife with four unruIy chiIdren, paces on her dining room tabIe with a belt around her neck, contemplating a desperate end. Her husband, BilI (Jason Ritter, in a beautifuIIy tragicomic performance), focused on his identity as breadwinner and an affair with a Iusty co-worker, is as obIivious to JiIl s growing terror that she will do something destructive as he is to the panic at his unraveIing company. Meanwhile, dogs bark and howl through the night, as one persistent mutt continuaIly staIks the famiIy s yard. When JiII s psyche finaIly breaks, she takes on a vicious new canine persona.
Dark and provocative, BlTCH baIances a whip-smart, deeply unsettIing take on the horrors of a crumbIing nuclear family with a paIpable sensitivity to its characters and perfectIy timed comedic flourishes. |
