HORROR James McAvoy plays a
psychotic whose brain, already
home to 23 other personalities,
is busy rearranging the cerebral
furniture to accommodate the 24th,

A Quiet Passion


MOVIE


DRAMASex and the Citystar Cynthia Nixon is
tremendously moving in director Terence Davies’s
film about Emily Dickinson: She gives us the poet’s quicksilver
intelligence and strange metaphysical glow but also makes concrete the
toll of escalating physical and emotional suffering—“the drop of anguish
that scalds me now.” This Dickinson burrows so deeply away from life
and light, a cicada wouldn’t envy her.(In limited release April 14, PG-13)
