Tragic and Heartbreaking! Movies Like This Should Come with a Warning.
The first third of this movie was magical and I was blown away by its beauty and its uniqueness. The characters and the setting were utterly charming. But then it took a turn and one tragedy heaped upon another and then another, with no reprieve. The heartbreak just kept multiplying and it was absolutely suffocating by the end of the film.
If you want to cry for an hour and feel the hopelessness of a character, so filled with potential and talent, who is ruined by one horrible event after the next, this might be the film for you. Otherwise, I recommend you watch until the wedding, then switch off the stream, pretend the movie is over, and go do something joyful.
I'm too sad to be angry but honestly, movies like this should come with a warning. But, since they do not, let this be yours. You are hereby warned.
