Oscar-nominated actor Florence Pugh has not one but two big screen outings in cinemas right now.
She's opposite Harry Styles in Don't Worry Darling and now has the lead role in an entirely different story called The Wonder.
From Sebastián Lelio, the Chilean behind the extraordinary Oscar-winning film A Fantastic Woman, he now casts another in the lead role of his latest story The Wonder.
Pugh is a British nurse who embarks on a journey to Ireland battered by the famine a decade before.
Her job may seem a simple one. Along with a nun, they must together watch a young girl every minute of every day as the deeply religious locals search for proof of a miracle.
Little Anna hasn't eaten, her family claims, for four months. Nurse Wright knows medically this can't be real.
But what's real and what's not, that's nowhere near as important as what people believe is real.
Kila Lord Cassidy plays Anna, who gives an extraordinary performance opposite another cracker from Pugh.
This film's slow-burn pace - which won't work for everyone - had me entirely hooked.
Will the fabulous Florence Pugh ever let us down? Fat chance. She's as mesmerising here as she's ever been, delivering on this haunting, unsettling, and engrossing story.
Four stars.
