Matthew Krueger (10051 KP) rated Clemency (2019) in Movies
Sep 1, 2020
Heavy
Clemency- is a heavy hitter meaning the subject of the movie is heavy. Its a sad movie, but also a good movie as well. Alfre Woodard does a excellent job in this film. Her performance is fantasic and phenomenal. Its sad that 1.no one has heard of this film, 2. No one has seen this film and 3. It got no nominations at the oscars.
The plot: Bernadine Williams is a prison warden who, over the years, has been drifting away from her husband while dutifully carrying out executions in a maximum security prison. When she strikes up a unique bond with death-row inmate Anthony Woods, a layer of emotional skin is peeled back, forcing Bernadine to confront the complex-and often contradictory-relationship between good intentions, unrequited desires, and what it means to be sanctioned to kill.
Like i said its a heavy hitter with drama and suspense. Go watch it, its on Hulu.

Captivating
I've read John Grisham's books before and found them a little dry or heavy so when I got this for Christmas I was a bit unsure. I immediately feel in love with Cullen Post, he's a really believable character and I found his dialogue much quicker/easier than other Grisham works.
All the characters were really good and fit together well. I liked that the suspects are given early on so yoy start to build your own hatred for them.
I did find the story heavy and I generally red it a bit slower than other books as I got bogged down in the feelings. It was immersive.

One of my favorite series. Jonas Armstrong is great and the episodes have these actions scenes without feeling heavy or violent. Love the storyline and the introduction of the characters

I really enjoy this series of books. Not too heavy going and the right size to slip into a handbag to read on the train when going up to London!

Imagery
complex world
A multilayered complex read, heavy and a lot more bloody and violent than the first book. Seriously, don't read this when trying to eat lunch. A few new characters join the scene and the rough spots in the writing style are smoothed out so it was easier to get into the flow of the book. Still heavy in lore, religion, and superstition that adds to the overall experience of the book.

Unpretentious language and well written - makes the stories hit home
An "accurate", relatable, non-sensationalized and non-overdramatic portrayal of refugee/immigrant lives
