Alice, Darling

[Opens Jan. 20 in theaters.] A panic-attack-prone, trichotillomania-afflicted, stressed-out, anxious woman (Anna Kendrick) in Toronto goes to the lakeside cabin for a weeklong vacation with her two close girlfriends (Kaniehtiio Horn and Wunmi Mosaku) and lies to her controlling, smothering, mentally abusive, British artist boyfriend (Charlie Carrick) that it is a last-minute business trip in Mary Nighy's realistic, poignant, multilayered, taut, superbly acted, well-written, 90-minute psychological thriller, and when her boyfriend eventually shows up to take her home, his plans do not go as he expects as the three friends bond together.
