‘Luce': Julius Onah’s Powerfully Constructed Psychodrama Of Race & Social Politics Is Brilliantly Tense [Review]

August 1, 2019 Jordan Ruimy

Directed and co-written by Julias Onah, “Luce” was the best movie I saw at Sundance 2019. It’s a psychodrama starring Naomi Watts, Octavia Spencer, Kevin Harrison Jr., and Tim Roth.“ I described it as “brilliantly tense,” adding, “Complex, layered and inviting disquisition, “Luce” then selectively plays things elusive. There could be something sinister about Luce or maybe Mrs. Wilson’s actions are unjustified, and she’s overstepped her boundaries yet again. The movie inches both of these ideas forward, but its left to the audience to litigate them.”
