Notes et avis

A lovely little flick celebrating typewriters, writing and the power of film and strong women. Couldn't get into the book but glad to have seen this. It's major flaw was when it felt like a cigarette ad: NONE of that vile smoking seemed necessary to the story. Otherwise, it's beautifully shot, great acting, great writing; doesn't have a Disneyfied ending, but I think it's better for that. It's satisfying and leaves a thing or two for the viewer to imagine. And it WILL make you cry near the end. Very good (not enough for me to buy and watch a gazillion times, but still). Recommended.

Haven't seen it but can tell it's Tory trash from a mile away, Downton abbey another Tories wet dream of how they think this island should be, permanently Victorian!

I watched this at the cinema and it was really good! It was sad at times, but it was also funny too! Probably more of a drama than comedy. Actors were great! Its a good film to watch, when you want to watch something a little bit different.
