what people actually wrote
Grouped by where it was written, because a considered review and a reaction typed an hour after the credits are different things. Every quote links to its source.
“I was moved almost to tears by the first half of this story. It was impactful in the book and remained touching and sincere on screen - I thought they translated the scene beautifully.”
