HERSELF: Director coaxes great performances from cast From Page A6 with a bureaucratic clerk that brilliantly illustrates the ludicrous flaws of the welfare system, Sandra accurately argues that a one-time loan would be far cheaper to the system, than the ongoing costs associated with hotel expenses — and gets nowhere. It’s a shrewdly scripted shake-your-head exchange. As the song goes, you’ve got to have friends. And, at this bleakest of moments, Sandra discovers that kindness truly does exist in the world. Dunne is sensational in her feature starring debut: shatteringly persuasive during Sandra’s bleakest, most helpless moments when she positively radiates despair. Yet she’s no less plucky and determined: a character who owns — and retains — our emotional involvement, from the moment we meet her. Dunne also is terrific during the warmly intimate scenes with young O’Hara and Molly McCann, as daughters Emma and Molly. Both little girls are too precious for words, and Lloyd guides them through some truly daunting highs and lows. At one moment they’re effervescent and giggly, like best friends sharing a secret; then, in a heartbeat, they’re sober and — when in their father’s orbit — wary, even frightened (with ample justification). Walter — an impressively busy
‘Herself’ Starring: Clare Dunne, Harriet Walter, Ian Lloyd Anderson, Ruby Rose O’Hara, Molly McCann, Conleth Hill, Daniel Ryan, Erika Roe, Dmitry Vinokurov, Mabel Chah and Aaron Lockhart Rating: R, for profanity and vicious domestic violence Available via: Amazon Prime

Sandra (Clare Dunne) and younger daughter Molly (Molly McCann) are delighted by the progress being made under the watchful gaze of contractor Aido Deveney (Conleth Hill). actress likely recognized from “Downton Abbey,” “The Crown” and “Call the Midwife” — is equally compelling as Peggy. At first blush, she seems merely a mildly cranky and aloof employer, but — as the story progresses — we get a sense that she and her adult daughter (Rebecca O’Mara) may recognize Sandra’s toxic dynamic with Gary from firsthand experience. At this point, Walter grants Peggy compassion, sensitivity and a willingness to help. Indeed, she
solves the issue of property prices in a simple yet unexpected manner. Conleth Hill — immediately remembered as Lord Varys, in “Game of Thrones” — is a quiet hoot as Aido Deveney, an independent building contractor who is sympathetic but can’t help for a variety of reasons. Seriously, he insists: just can’t do it. Well — maybe a little. And a little more. And … Hill’s heavenward gazes, slow takes and longsuffering sighs get
ample use, as Aido patiently educates Sandra in the skills — and pitfalls — of full-scale construction. Daniel Ryan, Erika Roe, Dmitry Vinokurov, Mabel Chah and Aaron Lockhart are a boisterous bunch as the friends and hangerson who gravitate to the project. Anderson, finally, is terrifying as Gary. His insincere smile is predatory, his eyes like cold, dead things. Absolutely the stuff of nightmares. Much of this film’s power
comes from the sense that these are actual people rather than actors playing a role. The fact that these performers likely aren’t familiar — Walter and Hill perhaps aside — has something to do with that, but it’s mostly attributable to the graceful finesse and subtlety with which Lloyd handles her cast. No surprise: She guided Meryl Streep to an Oscar, for 2011’s “The Iron Lady.” Lloyd’s new film resonates. Much of that is due to its slice-oflife verisimilitude — obviously, the United States isn’t alone with its housing crisis — and also to Dunne’s portrayal of a truly indomitable spirit. More power to her, and to “Herself.” — Read more of Derrick Bang’s film criticism at http://derrick bang.blogspot.com.
WATERMELON: Cellist says musicians, artists are ‘essential workers’ From Page A6
“Art has been taken for granted for so long, but in the absence of access to concert halls, museums, theaters, performing arts clubs, etc., people find that there is something missing that is absolutely vital to the human experience.”
natural next step for the shop,” said Greer, who is also Watermelon’s main social media manager. “When lockdown began, social media became the way we could bring our shop’s personality to the public. “The whole crew is so fun. It’s one of the main draws to having a brick and mortar store. You get to meet people who love music. “My hope is that this new series can energize the
equally fun and unique Davis music scene.”
