Culture Maven review: "Causeway"

Apple TV+

C D K · Culture Maven on Film: "Causeway"

Film Review & Podcast by c d kaplan

What a pleasure it is to see Louisville’s favorite actor Jennifer Lawrence back on the screen.

Even if “Causeway” is only streaming at Apple TV+.

Lawrence plays Lynsey, who is traumatized by an explosion while in the military abroad.

She undergoes serious rehab.

Then because of her circumstances must return to New Orleans, and the unhappy home of her youth.

The quiet contemplative film centers around the relationship of Lawrence’s character with James (Bryan Tyree Henry), who is also trying to recover from a similarly traumatic incident in his life.

The acting makes it all worthwhile.

For more details, listen to my podcast above.
