Before I saw this John Crowley-directed film, a friend of mine said it was like a less banging Baz Luhrmann movie (note: Baz Luhrman is an Australian A director, representative works "The Great Gatsby", "Romeo and Juliet Postmodern Passion", "Moulin Rouge"). Based on Colm Tobin's novel, the film depicts a whole, nuanced, real world. The protagonist of the story is a young and beautiful Irish woman who immigrated to New York in the 1950s, and every scene in this film is so perfect and flawless. Saoirse Ronan gives the best performance of her acting career to date in this film as Alice, a shy and shy woman. It was delightful to see Ronan's remarkable transformation in 2015.
