His Three Daughters is one of the best Netflix movies of the year

As a gamer who has navigated through countless virtual worlds and character dynamics, I can confidently say that “His Three Daughters” is a cinematic masterpiece that transcends the boundaries of digital gaming into real-life storytelling. This Netflix gem, directed by Azazel Jacobs, is a testament to the power of acting, as Elizabeth Olsen, Carrie Coon, and Natasha Lyonne deliver performances that are nothing short of extraordinary.

As a gaming enthusiast, I can vouch that Elizabeth Olsen, Carrie Coon, and Natasha Lyonne bring their A-game in the realm of family dramas, particularly in Netflix’s production titled “His Three Daughters“. These talented actresses deliver an acting masterclass that leaves a lasting impression on the viewer.

Directed and penned by Azazel Jacobs, this film appears deceptively straightforward, given its setting as a single-apartment drama featuring estranged sisters, their ailing father, and mounting stress. However, it masterfully weaves a complex narrative from these limited elements.

In this initial setting, the scene offers a profound insight into the relationships among the characters, both visually and through the narrative. The dialogue feels like individual soliloquies as three distinct women engage in a conversation, each one prominently featured within their own shot, separated from those around them.

In my gaming world, Jacob’s storytelling and game design are so flawlessly crafted that it barely takes a few moments for me, as a player, to grasp who these characters are and the bitterness they harbor towards one another.

Katie (Coon), the oldest sibling, acts as a strict and dominating parent towards her rebellious teenage child at home. She often jumps to conclusions based on biases, showing signs of judgmental behavior. Unyielding in her stance, Katie swiftly takes control of situations, which might be a mask for her underlying guilt about not visiting her father as frequently as she could have, considering their close proximity.

Christina Olsen, the youngest sibling, recently became a mother for the first time and is currently apart from her daughter due to living across the country. This separation is significant. She tends to conceal difficulties under the guise of daily yoga practice, preferring to avoid confrontations and instead opting for meditation when faced with challenges.

After that, there’s Rachel (Lyonne), the one who resided with their father prior to his illness and now finds it unbearable to witness him passing away. However, you wouldn’t guess this from her behavior, as she conceals all her sorrow by carrying on with her lifestyle of sports betting and marijuana use, acting as if nothing is amiss.

Perhaps it’s an attempt to bring some semblance of normalcy to her shattered emotions, but to Katie, it appears juvenile. Christina is trying to mediate, but a confrontation seems unavoidable.

Living together under one roof was inevitably going to be chaotic given that they each had distinct personalities and lifestyles.

It appears that the siblings harbor resentment towards Rachel, perhaps intensified by the fact that her name is the sole one on the lease for their late father’s apartment, even though she is his only stepdaughter. She joined the family at a young age through her father’s second marriage.

As a gamer immersed in this digital world, I find myself drawn into a story that mirrors real-life struggles. It’s not just about the unique predicament these virtual characters are in; it resonates deeply because of its relatable and universal themes. The anguish of losing someone close, the exhausting red tape, all feel disturbingly familiar. I can’t help but see a reflection of my own experiences in theirs.

In the movie, the siblings grapple with everyday struggles such as obtaining a Do-Not-Resuscitate (DNR) order over the phone, managing a hospice worker who may not have all the solutions, and drafting several versions of an obituary – these are just ordinary issues that arise from their family crisis, beyond their private drama.

In this film, where the setting is confined to a single location, it’s the powerful acting that keeps everything cohesive.

In a poignant portrayal, Carrie Coon transforms grief into smoldering fury, consuming an excessive amount of wine, while Elizabeth Olsen’s charming demeanor gradually fractures as she grows weary of being the pacifist who doesn’t retaliate despite the blows aimed at her.

In the Netflix series “Russian Doll,” it’s Natasha Lyonne who delivers an outstanding performance that steals the spotlight. Beneath her character’s seemingly carefree demeanor, she skillfully hides her emotional turmoil. However, in some heartwrenching scenes, those emotions burst forth in a way that leaves a profound impact on viewers.

Title “His Three Daughters” doesn’t necessarily focus on intricate details of the sisters’ daily lives or interpersonal dynamics, but rather explores their fundamental essences. The exceptional acting by these three performers brings to life some of the most impressive performances seen this year.

As I navigate through my virtual world, I can’t help but feel the spectral presence of Dad looming over me. His room, a sanctuary behind closed doors, is off-limits on Jacobs’ camera feed. I often wonder what goes on there, as he lies in bed, surrounded by machines, holding on to life, waiting for his time to come.

He is a repetitive beeping sound coming from a dimly lit room, with memories adorning the walls of his apartment, and his nearly adult daughters struggling to find common ground.

As a gamer putting myself in the shoes of one of the characters, I can say that the character played by Jay O Sanders briefly popped up, creating a heartwarming scene that beautifully weaved all aspects of the movie together. Given the title, it’s clear these are my sisters, and our father plays an integral role in defining our bond as siblings.

Among the top Netflix films this year, “His Three Daughters” offers a poignant exploration (without resorting to sentimentality) of characters learning to find forgiveness amidst the backdrop of impending death, as it subtly lingers in the adjoining room.

His Three Daughters is now out on Netflix.
