The synopsis for May December, directed by Todd Haynes and starring Julianne Moore and Natalie Portman, is as follows:
“Twenty years ago, after their famous romance captured national tabloid attention, Gracie Atherton-Yu and her husband Joe (who is 23 years her junior) faced difficulties with their twin sons, who were about to graduate from high school. When Hollywood actress Elizabeth Berry comes to spend time with her family to better understand the character of Gracie, whom she will play in the film, the family dynamic crumbles under the pressure of being on the outside looking in. Joe, who never realized what happened in his youth, begins to face the reality of his life at age 36, when his children are already leaving for college.“.
