A beautiful film, with beautiful performances and an even more beautiful message

Rating: 10/10 (22 November 2018)

I'm officially on the bandwagon, this was magnificent. It's a beautiful story to begin with, but Viggo and Mahershala give other-worldly performances that elevate it to even greater heights. Visually the film was nice too, there weren't any magnificent set pieces or anything like that but there was an intimacy to the cinematography that I haven't noticed in many other films. I'm sure people will complain that it's a little fluffy, but it took on very sensitive subject matter head-on and did it in a way that forced the viewer to confront their own beliefs in the process. Personally, I loved it and I'm going to remember the way it made me feel. I understand it takes more than just a film to change people's perspectives, but as this one said "it takes courage to change people's hearts".
