Keith & the Movies

Keith Garlington

It is a life-affirming movie that feels both tragic and beautiful.

Bent over and hunched, Sally Hawkins undergoes an astonishing physical transformation to play arthritic Canadian folk artist Maud Lewis... but what's really impressive about her performance is the spark and soul she brings to the role.

A beautifully crafted bio-pic of the 20th-century Canadian folk artist Maud Lewis.

Maudie is a remarkable and utterly unique film that I still can't believe someone actually made, but much like Maud's paintings, someone saw a quality in her story that they recognized as worthy of attention, admiration, and beauty.

Oscillating between moments of pain and ones of inspiring artistic expression, Maudie captures the nuance of Maud Lewis's life and her unexpected success as an artist.
