On screen and behind the camera, “Anemone” is a family affair. The movie charts a fractured sibling relationship and is a collaboration between real-life father and son, Daniel and Ronan Day-Lewis. The elder Day-Lewis stars; Ronan directs, and they co-wrote the flick together. That's one talented family!
"Anemone" is also one of last year’s most overlooked and underrated movies, at least in my opinion. Marking Daniel Day-Lewis’ return to cinema after his supposed retirement post 2017’s “Phantom Thread,” this psychological drama wasn’t quite the triumphant return many hoped for. It got a lukewarm reception from critics, and its box office takings were minimal, at best.
