Genres & Description

Drama

7.3 / 10

Behind any great man, there's always a greater woman - and you're about to meet her. Joan Castleman (Glenn Close): a highly intelligent and still-striking beauty - the perfect devoted wife. Forty years spent sacrificing her own talent, dreams and ambitions to fan the flames of her charismatic husband Joe (Jonathan Pryce) and his skyrocketing literary career. Ignoring his infidelities and excuses because of his "art" with grace and humour. Their fateful pact has built a marriage upon uneven compromises. And Joan's reached her breaking point. On the eve of Joe's Nobel Prize for Literature, the crown jewel in a spectacular body of work, Joan's coup de grace is to confront the biggest sacrifice of her life and secret of his career.

She deserves the Oscar great acting but I still don't get the story why she run from the dinner table like that? And why she mad she accepted her decision in the beginning why acting like she deserves everything when she actually both deserves together marriage is team doesn't matter who's the smartest every price they own should be 1 - @Friday, November 2, 2018 8:49 AM

It is sealed already! Glenn Close will be the next Academy Award winner for Best Actress for The Wife! A memorable performance as Joan Castleman. Can't wait for 2019 - @Tuesday, October 30, 2018 4:49 PM

Got really tired of the bickering , arguing and watching creepy old dad stuffing his face( which he should shaved and got a hair cut before receiving his Wife's Nobel prize) . The younger Glen close in the movie was a stretch , the son was pissed off and pouty all the time and it definitely won't win an oscar for the cinematography . - @Sunday, October 28, 2018 8:58 PM

Someone enlighten me, Was'nt Joe married with baby before being together with Joan? If so what heppened to the ex wife and the kid? This has not been clear. - @Thursday, October 18, 2018 2:13 PM

Seen it just today, she don't deserve an Oscar, simple as that. - @Wednesday, October 17, 2018 6:19 PM

I want to say something really important for me. If Glenn wins that Oscar this year it will be a real victory for the history of cinema. Cinema is not only for young people! Older people can be also sexy and carry a show! This is her best performance in my opinion and after six losses it would be criminal if she does not win. Please members of the academy give Glenn that Oscar!!! Help also young people to love great actors no matter what age! #OscarforGlennClose2019 - @Wednesday, October 17, 2018 2:29 PM

Same ol' story as BIG EYES. The only character I liked was the villain, Nathaniel. That photographer and her need to take pictures of Castleman's nose every two seconds annoyed me, the martyrdom on Joan's part sickened me, Joe's eagerness to take all the credit without any guilt disgusted me, and did the son have to be such a slob? Didn't he have any pride at all? I wanted to wring the neck of practically every character in the story. Horrible movie. - @Sunday, October 14, 2018 7:49 PM

This looks like the kind of movie I don't want to see in the theatre because then I will have to listen to my wife gripe every five minutes about how crappy men are. She won't mean me, but it will still be annoying. - @Sunday, October 14, 2018 6:21 PM

As much as I love Lady Gaga, I want Glenn Close to finally win her Oscar. - @Thursday, October 11, 2018 4:55 AM

No matter how much I love Gaga in A Star is Born, I'll root for Glenn to win Oscar. For God sake, she already done so many great roles, yet no oscar. My favorite is Albert Nobbs, and that's the movie that should've led her to the award. - @Sunday, October 7, 2018 1:59 PM
