The film tells the story of a dissatisfied Beverly Hills housewife tired of caring for her toddler who hires a stranger to baby-sit. However, she ends up getting much more than she bargained for.
Even if the tale is a bit much to be believed at times, it's unlikely you'll see a film more refreshingly honest and incisive about motherhood than "Tallulah."
Largely engrossing and impeccably acted, watching stars Ellen Page, Allison Janney, and Tammy Blanchard create living, breathing people who aren't easy to watch, yet it's hard to ignore their fascinating surges of pain.
