I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

People are voting emotionally.

Fantastic!

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

ALBERT NOBBS has some highly promising elements to it. The story of a waiter (Glenn Close) born out of wedlock, who has been forced to carve out a career masquerading as a male, offers some trenchant comments on gender and sexualities in late Victorian societies, as well as pointing to the prejudices that we still harbor today.In the closeknit, socially stratified world of Morrison's Hotel, Dublin, presided over by the maitresse d'h (Pauline Collins), men fulfill the active roles while women are consigned into the shadows as chamber-maids, cooks and the like. If anyone such as the housemaid Helen (Maria Wasikowska) is unfortunate enough to get pregnant, they run the risk of being cast out into the street as "brazen hussies." The house-painter Hubert (Janet McTeer) reacts to this situation by living as a man with a spouse in tow; at no point is her masquerade discovered in public.Albert tries the same strategy, but has to trust in others' willingness not to tell her employer what has happened. The fact that this renders her life miserable is obvious: when s/he gets the chance to shed her male attire and don a dress for the first time, the experience is almost overwhelming for her, as she runs along the Dublin sands like a child before falling down over her skirts.Rodrigo Garcia's film makes some good points about the ways in which individuals are constrained by social convention, especially among the lower classes. Servants are routinely abused, and fired at will, while the maitresse d'h profits at their expense while putting on a public mask of Christian charity.On the other hand, the narrative runs out of steam somewhat, as the story descends into sentimentality, especially when Albert believes that he has become attracted to Helen and vies for her attentions with wastrel Joe (Aaron Taylor-Johnson). The contest, predictably, proves an unequal one; and Albert passes away as solitary in death as in life, alone in his poky room at Morrison's. There is a happy ending of sorts; but we feel that director Garcia has somehow missed the opportunity to continue his criticism of sexualities and attitudes towards them. No one, it seems, is any the wiser for having learned about Albert's suffering.

Albert Nobbs: "Life without decency is unbearable".The story is about a woman who struggles to find independence in 19th century Ireland and poses as a man so she can work as a butler at a top hotel. When she meets a painter it gives "Albert" the chance she needs to escape the lie she has been living.Albert Nobbs has been described as an Oscar bait movie that's only purpose of existing is to win prizes, and while I do agree it is a bit Oscar bait and the movie itself is quite forgettable, but I'll be lying if I say there wasn't anything good in it. Compare this to other Oscar bait movies we've had in the past, this one isn't that bad or pretentious. Glenn Close was unrecognizable in this movie. I really bought into her playing a man and it's not just by the make-up that sold the effect off, but the tone of her voice, the movement and the overall performance created the effect perfectly. I'm so shocked that Glenn Close has never won an Oscar yet, as she's been non-stop impressing me in every she's done (including this one). Glenn Close was absolutely outstanding in this movie. The make-up, the costumes and the rest of the cast were all great. These's not a single bad performance in this movie. The staging and the scenery was spot on. Sadly I wish the whole movie was great, but keep in mind that I don't think Albert Nobbs is a bad movie but the movie falls into the cliché gender or sexuality problems that every Oscar bait movie dose. Now I have seen many movies that dose focus on the gender and sexuality issues and the movies themselves were great, because those movies never tried the 'Give me awards' kind of movie, they were good movies and I could easily watch them again as a film, but movies like Albert Nobbs are the type of films that I'll only watch once and never again.Overall Albert Nobbs has fantastic performances from everyone, great make-up and scenery. Unfortunately the film itself isn't what I call "great", just forgettable and it sucks saying that since I know a lot of effort went into this movie.

From a casual observer's point of view, there's no way that Glenn Close of Janet McTeer (who both play women posing as men) could pass as the opposite sex... but that's not really the point, is it? If you can suspend your disbelief, their performances are very good... they have the mannerisms, the voice, the attire down perfectly. I just find it difficult to believe, in real life, an individual with no visible facial hair and such feminine features would fool anyone into thinking they were another gender, unless they were very dense. Oh well, a moot point... but one I make regardless.This is late 19th century Ireland, when women's options seemed to consist of stay-at-home mothers, prostitution or servitude. Albert Nobbs is a female who, because of an unfortunate incident when she was 14, decided to become a man. Alas, transgender surgery was a good few decades away... so she has no choice but wear a fancy get up with lots of padding each day to carry out this facade. Her scheme seems to be going well... she's been working as a butler for many years, and has nearly saved enough to buy her own little shop. The jig is up though, when the local painter accidentally sees her undressing. She is naturally distraught... but hold on... the colour dauber may have a few secrets of 'his' own...Poor, poor Albert Hobbs. She can just about carry across the illusion she's a fella... but has no idea about the way the rest of the world works. Just watch her attempts to woo a pregnant maid into matrimony... there's no way this shy, awkward, much older 'man' could end up with someone so young and pretty... particularly as she happens to have a boyfriend already. A violent and jealous one, at that. It all ends in a confrontation with tragic consequences... and a conclusion which is the very definition of bittersweet.So, don't expect a feel good time... but do look forward to a thoroughly engaging historical drama. 7/10

This seems to be a labor of love for exceptionally talented Glen Close. She played this part in theater 30 years ago, and always wanted to bring it to the silver screen. Well, that is a problem. Playing a part at 35 and again at 65 might be a serious problem. Like many other actresses of her generation ( and unfortunately many younger ones, too) she got a bit reckless with plastic surgery. The tragedy of that option is that it doesn't make you look young, but weird. And hence, we have Glen Close playing stuffy, repressed Albert Nobbs,looking like ET's grandmother. Not for a second anybody could believe that Albert Nobbs is a man. And this is where this movie completely crashed. Luckily there is Janet McTeer, one of the greatest living masters of her craft, but sadly not as famous as she deserves.
