Despite its imperfect plotting, "May December Flixtor" shines in its well-crafted character design. Moore, Portman, and Melton deliver outstanding performances under Haynes' skillful direction. Sammy Burch skillfully crafts a script about flawed individuals and the consequences of their own choices. The film explores the roles of both victims and perpetrators, bringing Shakespeare's famous quote "all the world's a stage" to life through the dynamic of these three characters. While it may not be the pinnacle of Todd Haynes' filmography, "May December" is bound to captivate and convert even the most skeptical viewer into a devoted follower of this versatile director's work.
