A look at the new film 'Babygirl,' focusing on the performances of Nicole Kidman and Harris Dickinson.
There’s a decent argument to be made that Nicole Kidman is the single greatest performer working today, as she has been consistently challenging herself with a strong output of film and television roles for well over three decades. Kidman is so routinely excellent that it might be easy to take her for granted, but the buzz for her performance in the erotic drama Babygirl indicated that she was truly doing something radically different.
The new film from Bodies Bodies Bodies director Halina Reijn has been building awards momentum ever since it debuted at the Venice International Film Festival, where Kidman took home the prestigious Volpi Cup prize for Best Actress. It would be exciting to see Kidman recognized for what is one of her most vulnerable roles to date, but her co-star Harris Dickinson also delivers an Academy Award-worthy performance in Babygirl. What Is 'Babygirl' About? Close Babygirl explores a very inappropriate sexual relationship that emerges between the wealthy CEO Romy (Kidman) and the intern Samuel (Dickinson), who is tasked with assisting her through the company’s mentorship program. Romy has worked hard to achieve her position, and has dealt with the inherent sexism within the business world. After recognizing that she is not satisfied with her husband, Jacob (Antonio Banderas), Romy’s eyes are drawn to Samuel, who keeps flirting with her. Their interactions are initially innocent, but they soon develop into a passionate, forbidden affair that breaks all the company’s rules when it comes to ethics. Romy begins to realize that it is in her best interest to forget the entire ordeal, as she does not want to cause a situation that could have blowbacks for either her company or family. However, Samuel has become adjusted to the power that he has over her, and signifies that he is unwilling to let it go. Dickinson is able to ensure that Samuel’s intentions are entirely enigmatic, as a majority of the film is told from Romy’s point of vie
