After they start to regularly meet each other, Carol's flirtatiousness makes Therese become intoxicated with her. Department store clerk and amateur photographer Therese Belivet (Rooney Mara) finds herself attracted to a beautiful and generous customer, Carol (Cate Blanchett). Although it is easy to see the love affair between the two co-protagonists and the conservative patriarchal society as the main topics in the story, resonating universal human emotions are the underlying message. Adapted from a novel from Patricia Highsmith (1921-1995) originally known as The Price of Salt (1952), Carol (2015) comes back to life, this time on the big screen, more than half a century later. ![]()
