    A fun watch I like to visit once in a while to remind me how story-telling and what one wants to narrate it holds no bounds.

    Thoroughly misogynistic and demeaning. Reflects aptly the period of the film's release.

    Nonetheless, enjoyed the simplicity of it.

    The non-linearity of the film takes a while to catch up to but in trying to catch up to it, there's this immense sense of tension and curiosity built consistently. That kept me hooked.
    That library and the green dress. Burnt in my memory for the best of reasons 🙃
    Briony's character was flawed. Didn't feel relatable but you could understand why she did what she did without agreeing to it.
    Tothill uses editing so smoothly to blend in memories with the present, leaving that gap for the tension to brew, leaving us awestruck

    You don't bat your eyes from the screen for even a second to not miss out on the feeling that's so beautifully weaved in each scene.

    Love and kindness is the heart of the film and shows how it may…

    It was a refreshing perspective to witness how one's being and human-ness unfolds through something as foundational as conversations.

    The film has a wonderful premise and delivered beautifully despite the constraints. I loved how the film was written but was left wanting more of the characters and their humanness. He characters hooked me in but didn't traverse as profoundly as I would've liked them too.

    The sound of the film amplified and filled the silences. When the characters didn't say…
