Rebecca Hall's Christine is not someone you would rush up to hug. Smart and driven, she is also abrasive, pushy and socially inept - qualities that [she] embodies in her performance with immense technical skill and heartbreaking empathy.

Something of a tour de force for star Rebecca Hall who, in keeping with the film's approach, does so much while seeming to do so little.

Rich in dramatic detail and psychological insight, the film approaches its protagonist with genuine concern.

Impeccably played by Rebecca Hall, this is a thoughtful reflection on life's casual cruelties and how little attitudes towards women have changed since Watergate.

It's a haunting reflection on the hopefulness of feminism for the 1970s working woman, which is also uncomfortably effective. And while Christine's death is a part of the conclusion of the narrative, it doesn't define it.

Rebecca Hall gives one of the great performances of the year as the title character in Christine, an intense, stomach-churning, unblinking drama.

You'll need a shield to help deflect all the irony director Antonio Campos and screenwriter Craig Shilowich throw before the camera.

Campos' deliberately still camerawork captures Christine's sense of discord, with the eerie calm of her surroundings emphasising her fitful depression.

It's certainly the stronger of the two films that tackle Chubbuck's strange, sorry story.

"Christine" is based on true events, and I suspect it's all the more powerful if you don't know what happens at the end. I did, but the film still gripped me.

Desperately in search of a juicy story

A gripping, often agonizing character study with a tour de force performance by Rebecca Hall.
