Heart of a Doll is this intriguing character study, set during the Vietnam War era and dives into the complexities of love, loss, and longing. Louisa, played with a quiet intensity, navigates the emotional turmoil of her husband’s obsession with military glory. The film captures the weight of the era—subtle yet powerful, with a somber atmosphere that lingers. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing you to sit with the characters’ pain and hope. There’s a rawness to the performances that feels authentic, almost like you’re peeking into their lives. The practical effects and period details ground the narrative in a reality that many might find relatable, even if the context is distant. It’s a gem for those who appreciate deeper narratives over action-driven plots.
