Watched: Peacock

Y'know, this movie does have something to say about the emotional and psychological scars of parental abuse and how they can shape our lives, especially for truly sensitive introverts like Cillian Murphy's character. It's an interesting subject that gets expressed through his playing surrogate mother for himself once his own mother passes away, and the strange mental dichotomy he maintains between himself, an emotionally stunted bank employee and this maternal figure. It's a little eerie at times, and perhaps a bit slow at others.

But mostly, this is the second movie where I've seen Cillian in drag and I have to say... he makes a really beautiful woman. I'm a little jealous.
