Realizador: Paul Newman
Elenco: Joanne Woodward, Nell Potts, Roberta Wallach.

Middle-aged widow Beatrice Hunsdorfer (Joanne Woodward) and her daughters Ruth (Roberta Wallach) and Matilda (Nell Potts) are struggling to survive in a society they barely understand. Beatrice dreams of opening an elegant tea room but does not have the wherewithal to achieve her lofty goal. Epileptic Ruth is a rebellious adolescent, while shy but highly intelligent and idealistic Matilda seeks solace in her pets and school projects, including one which gives the film its title.

The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds (1972) - 8.5/10

Fui completamente surpreendido pela excelente realização do Paul Newman, simples mas segura e eficaz, e tem mais um desempenho soberbo da Joanne Woodward! A história, baseada na peça vencedora de um Pulitzer, é muito interessante.

Vou tentar ver o Rachel, Rachel nos próximos dias :wink:

Eu vi este há muitos anos e também gostei. Na altura fiquei muito curioso (antes de ver o filme) por causa do título, que imaginei metafórico, mas estranho.
