Beautifully shot stoytelling

Rating: 8/10 (1 November 2019)

One thing that stands out is how beautifully shot this movie is... and that is in now way taking anything from the true stories or amazing performances. Nicole Kidman's mother role shows the complete frustration as an adoptive mum battling the personality demons of children you've chosen to accept and love. And as any adoptive parent knows having to trust the children you've brought up to go and find their roots and not to love you any less, very brave. The fact it's based on truth Keeps you gripped albeit the outcome is probably unlikely to surprise
