Chloé Zhao’s deeply moving film about love and loss has captivated audiences and won awards at festivals worldwide, including London, San Diego, Toronto, and Spain. Those who saw it at Telluride were reportedly moved to tears. If you’re hesitant about a potentially heartbreaking experience, know that the film begins with a vibrant and passionate portrayal of Shakespeare (played by Paul Mescal) falling in love. And Jessie Buckley, as his future wife, delivers a truly remarkable performance that’s likely to earn her even more recognition than the film itself. Just go see it – a dark movie theater is the perfect place to let it all out.
