What’s better than one career-high performance? Try three career-high performances. That’s exactly what His Three Daughters — starring a trio consisting of Elizabeth Olsen, Natasha Lyonne, and Carrie Coon — offers. It’s no easy feat, considering they’re all experts at their craft with exceptional filmographies, but Azazel Jacobs’ strong direction and equally strong script about three very different sisters who must come together to care for their terminally ill father make it so. Olsen is best known for playing Wanda Maximoff in the MCU, but here, she returns to her intimate indie roots as Christina, the youngest of the titular daughters, who struggles to keep the peace between her strong-willed sisters: Carrie Coon’s Katie, a judgmental control freak, and Natasha Lyonne’s Rachel, who would rather check out of the drama and smoke some pot. Trapped in the confined space of their father’s apartment, where Rachel has been living and caring for the man, long-simmering resentments and insecurities threaten to erupt. The situation has the power to act as a fresh start for the sisters — or snap the thin thread by which their fraught relationships are already dangling. Collider got the chance to speak to Olsen, Lyonne, and Coon about what drew them to Jacobs’ dialogue-heavy approach, the specific challenges of phone scenes and fake cigarettes, and more. #natashalyonne #elizabetholsen #carriecoon For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL
