The Party (2018)
You know, now that I have finished this film I think that The Party was supposed to be funny. It was not. And actually I didn't really figure out that this theatrical little melodrama was a comedy until about halfway through. In any case, it doesn't work. And The Party? This is the title? I believe that it is supposed to have a kind of double meaning, whereby the title also refers to an unnamed political party, but The Party hasn't anything at all to say about politics. This film has Kristin Scott Thomas in it and also includes a lesbian subplot – otherwise I would have shut it off after 30 minutes.
