Zoe Kazan is back, this time playing identical twin sisters in The Pretty One. First-time writer/director Jenée LaMarque’s quirky film also stars Jake Johnson and Ron Livingston, but the film centers around Kazan’s layered performance as Laurel and Audrey, sisters whose similarity stops at genetics… Throughout the film, LaMarque explores themes of imitation vs. forgery—Lynch’s character is a painter who copies famous works of art—and Kazan presents three distinctly different women: Laurel, Audrey, and Laurel pretending to be Audrey. What’s remarkable is that each character is recognizably different, even when the latter two look identical on the surface.
