  I loved this.

  The slower pace in the first half is perfect for the multiple emotional body blows and the ‘germinating idea’ phase. The second half really kicks in to gear as the case for the argument is built with momentum and a sense of “oh THIS is the thing”. The docudrama style was note perfect too.

  Immediately buying the book.

  Monsters. 2019

  Watched 11 Feb 2019

  Examines how far forgiveness can go, not without its emotional and psychological consequences, in the sake of true, genuine love. The cinematography is some of the best I've seen and the dialogue is so brutally realistic and, more importantly, interesting that I was completely invested within seconds of the film starting. Absolutely stunned.

  Michael Caine says "Look at you, you ugly bitch of a morning"

  His delivery is wonderful.

  I have never laughed so hard in the cinema as I did tonight. Totally worth it.
