How sad is this?
Blistering performances.
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Sweet film about a writer, a story and a WWII story about the island of Guernsey. Well cast, well paced and beautifully written. I hope you'll check this out and enjoy the love that magically occurs when you're in the right place at the right time.Lily James is always a delight (loved her in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies) and the rest of the cast were equally wonderful. I love when the costumes and production values are as high as they were for this movie.Enjoy!
Most post war/ war time movies evoke gut wrenching emotions in me, so I typically avoid them, but I got hooked by the the trailer itself. What sets The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society apart from most other post war/war time movies, is that it captures the emotions of a post war era, in a way that is moving and compelling, without crude imagery. The actors have done a great job, the cinematography is fabulous , story keeps you engaged, (2hrs running time) and the movie is well directed . Lily James is a pleasure to watch, Penelope Wilton as usual gives a stellar performance. Strongly recommend!
Well directed and acted. Lovely scenes and excellent photography. Well worth watching.
There's a lot to say about this movie and at the same time there's nothing enough good to explain how good it is. One of the surprises of the year for me. It has everything that a Drama-Romance movie should have, starting with a beautiful, and at the same time rough story to tell. Beautiful acting, with a lot of fantastic interpretations by all of the ones who are part of the cast. Give it a shot, i'm sure it will not let you down.
