“His Three Daughters,” which premiered at TIFF, is an acting showcase for Carrie Coon, Elizabeth Olsen, and Lyonne—who shows a completely different side of her talents.
At first, it seems like their styles don’t exactly gel together—but that’s intentional. Jacobs opens the movie on a tight close up for Coon's character Katie, ranting. It’s an almost theatrical monologue where she refuses to stop for anyone else to speak. Katie is the daughter who has arrived from Brooklyn, where she’s been driving her rebellious teenager crazy, to ostensibly lay down the law and get the house in order. The others, in her mind, should be following her lead.
And then there’s Lyonne’s Rachel—immediately identifiable as a black sheep. She’s been living in their father’s apartment, and has mostly retreated from his care in these waning hours, spending time in her room placing bets on various sporting events and smoking pot, the latter of which drives Katie crazy. It’s a flavor of character that's familiar to Lyonne—the wise-cracking stoner—but she quickly taps into an evasive sorrow that defines Rachel’s persona.
