I've watched this movie 3 times now, it doesn't get any easier to watch, but the subject matter is important and still relevant today sadly.
Am I the only one who thinks Florence's father abused her on the boat- which kinda explains her fear of intimacy...?
The brief flashback she had after the bedroom calamity certainly suggests that !
definitely a history lurking there. that was my memory of reading the book -- it was more inferred (never stated) probably to reflect the desire of the character to not address
at the very heart of this film (and book) are the hidden consequences of child abuse.
Also, I love that they shot it on 35mm, it was so gorgeous
I saw the film and liked the 60's settings. This won't hit the heights, or be heaped with accolades, but has a fairly simple story with complex character issues. As for the film itself, It does not have a happy ending and left the cinema with a feeling of sadness.
It's like La La Land but sadder 😢
I thought the ending was bittersweet. He forgave her, and honoured his promise to support her.
I agree w Mark on just about everything. How tragic that they gave up before envisaging a change in the future for her... a change she really underwent... w the cellist. Perhaps not a great love, but 5 children? Didn’t like the over make-up at the end... unnecessary.
3 children and 5 grandchildren. Not so many I'd say.
All about repressed English upper middle classers in the 60s. I would say accurate of ppl that generation. Enjoyed it because the actors are so good and it looks beautiful.
Can someone at the BBC please, please PLEASE adjust the focus on the camera pointed at Mark. For some years, it was focused on the green microphone, and now it's focused on the glass backdrop. Either way, Mark is constantly in an annoyingly soft, blurry focus, and I'm pretty sure he's not that fuzzy in real life.

Simon Tayler What gives? I see Mark perfectly clearly.
Hey!! We did an on Chesil Beach no spoiler review. Please let us know what you think!! Thanks. If you can no problem but it would mean a lot!
Thank you for the review
Loved this film.
Second adaptation of his novel to star her with the first one being atonement.
Who did she play in Atonement?

Really enjoyed the book so I’m hopeful for this.
The film softened the ending far too much.

I understand in the novel, Florence never remarried. Is that correct?
@@kensellers4082 it didnt say, but edward always thinks of her, and he realized that she was his greatest love, and didnt want to see/know what happened to her, he wants to preserve the memory he has of her..
I'm happy to see cricket in that film
Yes yes. But where's Lars? (oh Larrrrs)
The film maybe long & poorly directed in parts, however the film’s well acted, well written, stylish & well casted Ian McEwan adaptation. (70%) (3.5/5 stars) (positive)

@Ellie So boring
I wanted to see a romantic movie, ended up watching this nightmare. I was fu**ing depressed.
Sad movie..he didn't have the patience to get to the root of the problem and help her....he bails on her instead and lost on love.
And she should have been open with person she wants to marry. Talk about her difficulties and anxieties and not just go into marriage like that
I think Edward must have had some suspicion that Florence was frigid before they married. After a couple of drinks, I suspect that Edward would want to get amorous with his beautiful fiancée.
Every critique or synopsis I’ve read of this film misses the point at it’s very heart which is of course the hidden consequences of child abuse. i.e. why would a young girl be frigid and freak out at a premature ejaculation and how many other lives are affected, including the cello player.
McEwan now writes boring books about middle class people doing extremely middle class things in excruciating detail.
Vinny H. Not quite...he first wrote about middle class people having terrible things happen to them.
Bless. You’ve not read much have you.
Please Mr Kermode, when will the movie "1066" be released, I am just bored of same old dull English cinema
Beautiful film. Hit me deep
I love Soarise but this movie was a disappointment. The Meatloaf song A Kiss is a Terrible Thing to Waste describes the ending perfectly.
What in the world is this movie about?!!!
Communication and understanding, or the lack of.
God, how I hated the book. Don't think I could stomach the movie
This is the opposite of any film human beings might enjoy.
I just watched this movie
Now i am depressed
Oh the knowing democrat middle class opinion projectiles
I was unable to stay awake through this miserable yawnathon
