Funny while heartbreaking, “Mommy,” Xavier Dolan’s fifth and best film ro date, premiered at the Cannes Film Fest (in competition) where it won the Jury Prize.
The Quebec-born filmmaker, who is only 25, is quite ambitious, and uncompromising. It’s been a long time since I saw a film with the unusual 1:1 aspect ratio.
“Mommy”” is Canada’s entry for the 2104 Best Foreign Language Picture Oscar.
