Julianne Moore's finest performance, as I've mentioned before, is in Safe. But her portrayal of Alice Howland in the tearjerking drama Still Alice is absolutely stunning as well. She plays a woman with early-onset Alzheimer's, and the film watches what happens to her and her family after the diagnosis. Folks, this movie just about killed me: This is how you do an intelligent melodrama. My review is up at Screen International.
