Full Plot Details

In an adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's seminal novel The Price of Salt, CAROL follows two women from very different backgrounds who find themselves in an unexpected love affair in 1950s New York. As conventional norms of the time challenge their undeniable attraction, an honest story emerges to reveal the resilience of the heart in the face of change. A young woman in her 20s, Therese Belivet (Rooney Mara), is a clerk working in a Manhattan department store and dreaming of a more fulfilling life when she meets Carol (Cate Blanchett), an alluring woman trapped in a loveless, convenient marriage. As an immediate connection sparks between them, the innocence of their first encounter dims and their connection deepens. While Carol breaks free from the confines of marriage, her husband (Kyle Chandler) begins to question her competence as a mother as her involvement with Therese and close relationship with her best friend Abby (Sarah Paulson) come to light.

Movie Reviews

MovieFreak.com - 10/10 by Sara Michelle FettersThe smile of recognition and understanding that closes things out is an unforgettable celebratory stunner that shook me right to my very core.
RTÉ (Ireland) - 10/10 by Sarah McIntyreCarol is a sensuous, enchanting piece of work which vividly and realistically recreates the 1950s in American in a new way -- never seeming twee or idealised.
The Coast (Halifax, Nova Scotia) - 10/10 by Tara ThorneCarol tracks the slow-burn of romantic agony, with the added weight of a closet the size of the world.
Correcámara - 10/10 by Hugo LaraA movie that adheres to the Hollywood canons, impeccably shot and crafted and a strong presence by Blanchet and Mara. [Full Review in Spanish]
Cinema Sight - 10/10 by Wesley LovellA perfectly acted, perfectly sculpted, perfectly rounded exploration of love and strife in the not-so-perfect '50s.
Movie Talk - 10/10 by Jason BestThe film still makes the viewer swoon, its heady mood of love and longing generated by the briefest of glances and gestures.
Today's Zaman (Turkey) - 10/10 by Emine YildirimThis is pure cinema, which through its artistry opens a window into the souls of its characters and admittedly opens the closed windows of its viewers as well.
Collider - 10/10 by Brian Formo'Carol' is the most romantic movie of the year, and through Rooney Mara's performance-and Haynes' careful direction-it might also be the most cathartic.
Chilango.com - 10/10 by Ira FrancoThe performances in Carol are simply spectacular. [Full review in Spanish]
Rip It Up - 10/10 by David 'Mad Dog' BradleyWhile Cate Blanchett has been nabbing all the praise, the actual protagonist of the piece, played by Rooney Mara, manages to match the top-billed star with a performance every bit as committed, subtle, moving and intense.
