Incredibly powerful - if you're not crying several times through this, there's something wrong with you. Julianne Moore as Alice is so moving and affecting - strong and suffering, struggling to understand and stay connected. Her terrific journey is agonizing to watch, as is the impact on her family. So surprising was the strength of the performance by Kristen Stewart - such a long way from Snow White, very impressive. The only flaws for me were 1) Alec Baldwin was unbelievable as the loving, supportive husband and medical researcher - I kept expecting him to tell her that he was leaving her for a younger woman - and 2) the things that they changed from the novel (why move the story to New York?). But watch this films for the scenes with Moore by herself, and with Stewart. Masterful and moving.
