New mother feels out of sorts being a stay at home mom. Things get weird when she starts turning into a dog at night.
This is an interesting look at motherhood and marriage through a magically realistic eye. It’s a film that I admired more than loved. That isn’t to say that it is bad, rather I like the film, but I don’t love it. The reason for that is I am neither a woman nor a parent so I cannot connect to some of what I am seeing on screen. Yes, I can see what they are getting at and I have a slight connection because of what friends said, but as one writer friend said “I don’t expect anyone who isn’t a parent, or especially a mother, to know how on target this film is.
That said- if you are a parent and especially a mom- go see NIGHTBITCH.
