I've been eagerly awaiting to see this movie for months, as I am a HUGE fan of Florence Pugh. She is exceptional in period pieces and does not disappoint in this movie. I'm here to give my review, not my synopsis of the movie. So if that's what you're looking for, look elsewhere. The intro to the movie had me bewildered at first but as I continued to watch, I realized not only was it brilliant but speaks to the quality of the movie. The opening instantly pulls you into this enigma of what's to follow. Florence is brilliant and on par with the theme of science verses religion. The rest of the actors, from the offscreen tavern patron to the 11 year old girl, Anna, who is the focus of the film, brings this piece to life and helps to make it extraordinary. The One Thing that I beg of you, DO NOT SEARCH FOR INFO ON THIS MOVIE BEFORE YOU WATCH IT! Halfway Through The Movie, I searched to see if this was based on a true story. Do Not Make The Mistake I Did! Because of this, the ending did not hit as hard as it should have and was meant to, which left me loving the movie and pissed off at myself. For Those Who Like Info- the movie is loosely based on a true story. Now, let it go, watch the movie and you WILL enjoy!!
