-

Halle Berry pulls out all the stops as 1970 Los Angeles go-go dancer Frankie, who is prone to blackouts during which two distinct personalit­ies emerge – a timid seven-year-old child with a genius IQ and a white racist Southern belle.

Berry picked up a Golden Globe nomination for her gutsy performanc­e.
