B-

It’s a role that requires vulnerability, and Leachman demonstrates a willingness to do what needs to be done to give Margaret the dignity she so deserves. There will never be another Cloris.

4/5

Simultaneously dazzling and poignant, Jump, Darling is a terrific drama with star turns from Thomas Duplessie and the late Cloris Leachman.

Duplessie’s drag performances are a highlight and his budding romance with Zachary is sweet, but most viewers will appreciate the late Leachman’s delicate and sometimes foulmouthed performance here.
