Nocturnal Animals

Nocturnal Animals (Tom Ford, 2016) a story about destruction basically. Amy Adams plays Susan an art gallery owner who is deeply upset with her life, so much so that she has bouts of insomnia. Her ex-husband sends her a manuscript of his novel which preys on her mind further. It puts into perspective her current marriage and of course her first. The book helps her look afresh at her professional life and revisit some decisions she's made in the past. I loved this film, full of intrigue  and suspense. Ford seems to know how to convey internal conflict with great aplomb.
