Puzzle
In order to develop her pent-up morale, Agnes moved to New York City, where she collaborated with a skilled man in solving puzzles in Atlantic City. Agnes is a brilliant woman in solving a series of frequent puzzles and perhaps with complete independence and begins to show her value and use her pent-up talent to urge her to put her life on another side.

Kelly Macdonald shines in the lead. Her face is a powerfully expressive text ... representing hairpin turns of understanding and decision that are always convincing.

Thoroughly simplistic and profound, Puzzle is a poignant and insightful character study of domestic alienation looking to take some time off for poetic evaluation.

Turtletaub goes deep on character, allowing Macdonald and Khan to reveal details of their lives, and also their dreams and fears, in a manner that's as natural as the charming piano score.

... this film carries a steady, oceanic emotional undercurrent in a light package.

The results are deceptively simple, finding complex emotions in a scenario that only signals sentimentality.

As the character grows Macdonald's performance gets even more complex, and even when the story gets a little formulaic the emotional investment remains.

Despite this crying out to be described in jigsaw puns, I'll simply say that Kelly Macdonald as the blossoming Agnes blows everyone out of the water in a performance of subtle intensity and humour, and leave it at that.

Watching two people do a jigsaw puzzle could be fascinating in the right movie. This is not that movie.
