Kajillionaire (2020)

Raised by two con artist parents Debra Winger and Richard Jenkins, 26 year old Evan Rachel Wood has never been treated as anything other than an accomplice in their schemes. When the family meets Gina Rodriguez during one of their scams, it upends all their lives in different ways. The film somehow takes a weird setup that almost no one should relate to while being a completely raw and real look at people and relationships. Winger and Jenkins are excellent in their roles and makes one wonder how they became their adult selves, but it’s Wood who is the standout. Somehow she becomes the walking embodiment of an infant who was left in a crib and never touched but still survives.
