Jolie’s performance is nothing short of exceptional and I firmly believe she deserves an Oscar nomination. Her portrayal is subtle and nuanced, delivering the best female performance I’ve seen all year. The set design is simply stunning and the acting is superb, even from the canine companions.

The scene in the rain is particularly cinematic, capturing the essence of drama and emotion at its best.

"One Hundred Years of Solitude" is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month.
