Miss Julie

Jessica Chastain is deliriously good as the daughter of an English baron, wielding her power to taunt Colin Farrell’s valet and his fiancée (formidable English actor Samantha Morton). Director Liv Ullmann exerts fastidious control over form, so that her actors might unleash something wild. Filmed in Northern Ireland, this is feverish, ferocious cinema.
