This is a masterclass in restrained, emotionally charged characterization. Oppenheim's script uses a fractured timeline and intimate, often uncomfortable dialogue to place the audience inside Jackie's grief and calculation, making her public composure feel like a performance and a survival tactic. Its focus on internal conflict over external plot is a valuable study in dramatic tension.
