RogerEbert.com — The Wife
Glenn Close is subtly devastating in “The Wife,” indicating a lifetime of repression and resentment in just the slightest wry smile or withering glance. Close and Jonathan Pryce have crackling chemistry with each other, the two veteran actors enjoying snappy banter and enduring lacerating battles. But while Pryce’s character remains steady in his narcissism and neediness, Close’s undergoes a quietly powerful transformation from self-deprecating spouse to fiery force of nature. And it all goes down during the Nobel Prize ceremony in Stockholm. My review, at RogerEbert.com.
