blue jasmine 8/10. cate blanchett is stupendous as a woman always on the edge. another hollywood actress who becomes the character she is playing. the movie has nice cutscenes of the past comparing it to her present reality and how a sudden change of fortune leaves skillless people clueless. her sister, played by sally hawkins is brilliant as well - a woman who is forgiving of other's mistakes and does not have too many complaints with life and tries to remain her cheery self despite circumstances.
