Carol
Why we chose it
Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara’s iconic romance begins at Christmas 1952, when an elegant woman leaves her gloves on a shop girl’s counter. The novel’s author used a pen name and got letters for years, and Todd Haynes turned it into a film with six Oscar nominations and the Queer Palm at Cannes.
Synopsis
At Christmas 1952, Therese is working the toy counter of a New York department store and dreaming of becoming a photographer. When an elegant customer, Carol, buys a train set and leaves her gloves behind, Therese posts them back to her. Carol is going through a divorce, and her husband is trying to take her daughter from her.
