Albert Nobbs


Glenn Close is a woman who poses and lives as a man in 19th century Ireland in order to obtain employment. She works as a butler named Albert Nobbs at a popular hotel. After living as a man for so many years, she struggles to understand her identify as she falls in love with a fellow hotel worker.  The make-up and hair transformation make Glenn Close really look like a man.  Glenn Close is a phenomenal actress and does a fantastic job pulling you into the story of a woman trapped in a man’s body.  Be prepared to go along for the ride as the movie takes you through her/his struggle.  Glenn Close delivers an Oscar worthy performance.  Movie of the year…not so much.  I give this movie 2 out of 4 stars.
