What to Read Next

The narrative of Atonement revolves around Briony Tallis (Ronan), a 13-year-old girl, who unjustly accuses her older sister Cecilia’s (Knightley) lover Robbie Turner (McAvoy) of an immoral act. This misdeed sets off a series of lifelong repercussions. The story unfolds across various timeframes, including the tumultuous period of World War II.

The film received widespread praise, boasting an impressive rating of 83% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. According to _The Arizona Republic_, it offers a “deep exploration” of the destructive and healing powers of imagination.

The New York Magazine found it captivating and reminiscent, whereas The Times described it as a rare cinematic gem.

In her acting career, Ronan earned her initial Oscar nomination portraying Briony, and subsequently received an additional three nominations. The film itself garnered seven Oscar nominations, taking home the award for Best Original Score. Furthermore, it clinched the BAFTA Award for Best Film.

In the direction of Joe Wright, this movie features Romola Garai from the series Vigil, Vanessa Redgrave known for Coriolanus, Brenda Blethyn famed from Vera, Juno Temple recognized for her work in Ted Lasso, Harriet Walter hailing from Succession, and Benedict Cumberbatch who made an early appearance in this film.

Recently, I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Ronan shine on the big screen in films like “The Outrun” and “Blitz”. On the other hand, Knightley captivated me last year with her performance in the Netflix series “Black Doves”.

Atonement is available to stream now on BBC iPlayer.

The latest print edition of Digital Spy, featuring the Oasis – Live in ’25’ issue, is available! Pick it up at your local newsstands or purchase it online for only £8.99.
