In Sebastian Lelio’s 2013 drama “Gloria,” Chilean actress Paulina Garcia played a 58-year-old divorcee who mostly enjoys her life, blending nightclub outings with a stable job and cozy family time, until a misguided romance disrupts that careful balance.

It should come as no surprise that one of them was not only eager to work with Lelio on a future project, but to play Gloria herself. Julianne Moore hasn’t missed out on playing substantial characters, but Lelio’s English-language remake “Gloria Bell” places her at the center of a fascinating cinematic experiment, as the movie delivers such a faithful shot-for-shot version of the original it’s almost as though Moore has been copied and pasted into every scene.
