6. The One I Love (2014)
Partnered with executive producer Mark Duplass, Elisabeth Moss provides one of her most dynamic, challenging performances in 2014’s The One I Love, Charlie McDowell’s assured feature directorial debut. In this inventive domestic thriller-drama, Moss plays Sophie, a frustrated woman inside a discontent marriage with Ethan (Duplass), with whom she takes a weekend retreat to a secluded estate. Once they settle into the weekend destination, however, it’s apparent that there’s something odd about this therapeutic locale. To spoil more would be a sin.
This intriguing, thoughtful drama tackles the complexities and intricacies of a fractured marriage from a curiously unique perspective, providing an ambitious, adventurous take on love and commitment. Aiding the film immensely, though, are the lead performances, most notably from Moss. The smart, expressive manner through which the actress demonstrates her character’s evolution and discovery showcases the full range of her impressive talents.
