    Filmmaking at its finest. Prepare to have your heart broken. I was particularly pleased that the director decided to leave poignant scenes free of any back-ground music. Too many movie-makers think it's necessary to add distracting music to every scene.

    WOW! Just wow! That was awesome! Such raw emotion, it really drew you in to the story. Even the kids were great actors! I may need to go back again, and bring hubby, who doesn't care much for movies.

    This is what movies should be. Fascinating from start to finish. Spellbinding visuals. Believable acting. Fitting sounds. Mood swings in the story. Emotional ending. Greatness.

    Go see it. This is how to make a movie. I haven't been emotional about a story in years. This did it. It's visually beautiful and very well written. The music fits in all the right places. Bravo.

    Simply the best film of the year. The cinematography, the captivating acting from Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal, the direction, art direction, score, and the flow of the written screenplay. Flawless!

    Quality movie, the story, the acting, the sets, it was one of the best movies I seen all year and I've seen at least 50 so far.
