Albert Nobbs

☆☆☆☆1/2

+
In an Oscar nominated performance, Glenn Close plays Albert Nobbs in the engaging and touching story of a women posing as a man in order to make a living in 19th century Ireland.

Albert eventually meets Hubert Page (outstanding Oscar nominated performance by Janet McTeer)…a friend with whom he shares his secret.
_
An actor playing a character of the opposite sex doesn’t always work (as in the film “Yentl”)…and although it is surprising that the people in Albert’s world didn’t pose more questions…Close gives a convincing performance.

Rated R
1 hr. 53 min.
