An unsettling power play of shifting perspectives, reflections, and performances based on Samy Burch’s Academy Award–nominated screenplay, May December chronicles the encounter between ambitious actor Elizabeth (Natalie Portman) and Gracie (Julianne Moore), the woman she is preparing to portray. A suburban homemaker, Gracie is married to Joe (Charles Melton), who was a boy of just thirteen when their scandalous relationship made tabloid news and landed her in prison. As the couple prepares to send their youngest children to college, Elizabeth interviews their friends and neighbors and spends time with the family, but the closer she gets to her subject, the more elusive Gracie proves to be.
