    Good acting but scant dialogue and plot. The romance between the characters of Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan is not believable and they say few words to each other during the film. They do a fine job with what they are written but that isn't saying much. The movie spends most of its time building atmosphere and focuses on ambient noise rather than character interactions. The cinematography is solid but not compelling. Overall, there is little to recommend this film but it will pass the time.

    Ammonite in terms of geology means a rock having drilled sutler lines For these two ladies so many lines are drawn and eventually crossed when they meet Kate Winslet and Saiorse Ronan in the 1700s play Charlotte and Mary Mary is a paleontologist living with her sick elderly mother in a shop specializing in collecting rock samples with fossils in them. Yet she never had gotten recognition for her findings. And considering most of her family has died it's just her alone with her work. Charlotte suffered a miscarriage a while back and her husband wants her to get out of her grief and start living again. Charlottes husband drops her off, she feels sick but thanks to Mary starts feeling better. From then on both of these women develop an unusual attraction towards one another. Charlotte doesn't want to go back to the life before meeting Mary but Mary is comfortable where she is. Plus what would happen if people found out about them considering when this takes place. Acting is great from both women, it's moody and relies a lot of visual storytelling. Barely any music throughout which I guess makes the realism stick out. It's delicate and beautiful with the emotions and complexities of forbidden passion. Not for all but worth it just for the ripe chemistry of its actresses.

    Acting is wonderful. Especially Kate Winslet. Unfortunately script remains weak for such great cast.

    Sublimely acted and mutedly passional, Francis Lee's imagination of an amorous affair of palaeontology pioneer Mary Anning and geologist Charlotte Murchison is hardly a biopic but a fiery portrayal of two women unbosoming desires of their hearts in each other like the fossil they unearth.

    Kate Winslet playing a lesbian who digs up fossils in a movie? Oh yes, please. Kate Winslet going down on a woman in the same movie? Oh hell yes, please! Getting to see another woman kiss on Kate Winslet's naked boobies in still the same movie?? Oh hell to the YES, YES, YES! Kate Winslet having a woman sit on her face while she performs cunnilingus in yet still the same movie?? Okay, who has been invading my brain and stealing all of my Kate Winslet fantasies??? And can you keep doing it?? Because I have some really interesting thoughts about Christina Hendricks with another woman, and I would really like to see them in a movie as well. And while you are in my brain full of fantasies about celebrity women, there are some interesting movies with Sigourney Weaver making out with women that I would like to see too. Thanks in advance.

    A beautiful film about a romantic relationship set in a particular context of a constraining place and time. Kate Winslet plays a hardened paleontologist whose internalized emotions are released. The intense sex scene is surprising, but revealing. The film is quite naturalistic, detailed, and lives up to what we'd expect from Francis Lee, after God's Own County; a same sex relationship developing in midst of needing to survive while the characters are hard at work. The paleontologist's is well researched. Period in a seaside setting is cinematically interesting. As in the director's film God's Own Country, work ends up revealing much about character and the relationship.
