Duller than it should be
For such for such an interesting true story, this film should really be fascinating and interesting too, but sadly it isn’t. Instead of focusing on the efforts of the husband or of the resistance in general, this film instead chooses to focus on the wife. Whilst she most definitely was involved, to me her role didn’t seem as pivotal as others and this made the film a little dull. It is undoubtedly a harrowing tale, but this didn’t come cross in the film whatsoever. The script wasn’t great and even Jessica Chastain, who I usually quite like, couldn’t make this any better. In fact I think she made it worse... and I know it’s a true story, but all this film did was made me worry about all of the animals that died during the war ?
