I just finished watching this and it's 230am; thought I would take the time to write about it whilst still fresh in the mind!
What is with all the sad stories as of late? January is a very depressing month; I just wished these kind of films were spread across the year!
It was great to see Kate and Leonardo DiCaprio back together (since Titanic). However, a totally different relationship to the one they shared back then.
Leonardo was in excellent form, in fact it was his performance I found to be more powerful. The acting was not overdone by the actors and you really got a feel that this was set in the 1950s-it all felt very genuine and "from the heart".
If you are after a bit of stark reality and a lesson, this is the movie for you.
Shame about the sad ending :-(
I might squeeze another review for you later on today - not sure which yet though!
