Carol – Film Review

Carol, is based on Patricia Highsmith’s, The Price of Salt written in 1952 which chronicled her own feelings about her sexuality through two fictional characters. Set in the fifties, an era when two women seen touching, let alone being in a relationship, was a preposterous idea, Haynes shows the two central women in the film having moments with touches or looks seem electric and almost scary. As if we the audience know that what is about to transpire between them is completely real and filled with a mixture of lust and love.
