About

You may like this if you connect with intimate, reflective dramas like Frantz or In Bloom, and don’t mind a measured pace; Not for you if prolonged hospital settings and physically painful scenes sound draining.

Pros: life-affirming tone; vivid period atmosphere; humane humor | Cons: very slow pace; distant storytelling; heavy illness focus
