Review of God's Own Country (2017) by Erik'as J — 17 Feb 2018
"God's own country" is a soulful movie created by someone with great passion and a very unique eye. Though the pattern of the story is a very familiar one, it is done with such respect to the characters that it never felt forced at all.
Sure the struggles the protagonist is going through are not new, but the way O' Connor portrayed them,in such a humane way,achieved a level of reality that's not always present in movies with such storyline.
It works on many levels mainly because of the great performances by both leads who managed to shape their characters into real people. The cinematography is breathtaking and enhances the storytelling.
Francis Lee created something really beautiful here and he gave us what was lacking in these type of romances. Happy,hopeful endings.
