'The Nightingale' turns a historical revenge movie into a stake through toxic masculinity's heart. Read Peter Travers' review
At first, Hawkins is content to make the young woman his personal songbird, given that Clare sings like a nightingale while she serves him food and drink. And then the screaming starts. Claflin, the blond dreamboat Finnick Odair inseries, plays this colonial monster without dropping his charm and good looks, which makes him doubly scary. It’s a bold gamble of a performance that pays off. Hawkins wears a surface sanity in public; he desperately wants that promotion.
When her dream of liberation is brutally squashed, Clare vows revenge. That’s when Kent and the splendid cinematographer Radek Ladczuk build a historical story of vengeance that shakes you to your core.extends from the tale of one woman in pursuit of a male predator to a broad condemnation of a system that exploits women and the indigenous people of Tasmania, all the while detailing how their world becomes one.
Clare chases Hawkins into the wilderness on her husband’s unsteady horse, her trauma often reducing her to a fevered dream state that tests her survival at every turn. As a guide, she hires an Aboriginal tracker, Billy , who is reluctant to work for this half-crazed, racist woman who is likely to get him killed. Ganambarr, a dancer in an extraordinary acting breakthrough, builds a character whose grudge against the British begins to match Clare’s own.
