loved the originality behind this and how much it relates to daily events today
Great actors and excellent story but very disappointing ending.
Years from now, when the orbital politics of the film have dissolved, what will resonate about Beatriz at Dinner will be the sight of Hayek — leaps and bounds more enchanting a screen presence than the performers surrounding her — as a poignant object of neglect.
The film’s second act is near spot-on comedy of discomfort.
Hayek’s performance, by the end, grows unexpectedly moving. Yet Beatriz at Dinner is a little tidy. It seizes and charms without soaring.
