The World to Come

The two female leads in this movie turned an otherwise predictable period piece into something really special. They had real chemistry on screen and truly brought the characters to life. I felt every emotion they depicted. The directing was great as well. Although I didn't expect much from the film when I first started watching, I ended up really enjoying it.

Diary entries and dialogues are so hearty. Well as far as this genre goes it's always the same. Cheers for a future we get to enjoy modern lesbians living free in cinema.

Excellent story in a world where man dominated and reality is presented in such a crude way but at the same time they give us that romance, I loved it.

Abigail and Dyer live on a farm in 1850s upstate New York along the frontier. When Tallie and Finney arrive for a short while, Abigail and Tallie strike up a friendship that reinforces in each woman what they are missing in their lives. Amazing landscape and cinematography, Waterston and Kirby connect.

L'eleganza e la prosa di questo dramma sono senza dubbio di spessore e di qualità, seppure difficili da apprezzare a fondo per i non amanti del genere, considerando la lentezza delle azioni e dei dialoghi, e la piattezza delle figure maschili. Troppo risalto viene dato ad un invadente narratore che racconta le numerose lettere ed appunti di diario, prendendo il sopravvento sui dialoghi e sulle azioni. I due personaggi maschili poi sono clamorosamente sacrificati, piatti e poco più che oggetti utili come contesto, che però appesantiscono e rallentano ulteriormente ogni sequenza in cui sono presenti. Buono il finale.

This is quite a subtle film in a sense, even though it depicts some intimate scenes. It's fairly atmospheric at points and I liked the light poetic type narration provided. It's somewhat immersive and its a bit sobering at times. I thought the two main characters gave decent performances. It reminded me a little of Cold Mountain, certainly at the start. The dialogue is pretty softly spoken and most scenes are pretty darkly set, which is either atmospheric or somewhat off putting I suppose. Personally, I'd recommend this film, yes.

must see. i am in awe. in love. i love love. i hate hate its just that good my heart still aches 6 months later

Nicely done. A well told and interesting story. Unfortunately, a sad story.

Ele é perfeito, fiquei com depressão!!!

Who am I just a dreamer. The beautiful sobbing love of the two main characters made me deeply moved. Classic background, mountains, forests, everything has a lonely natural look. Every day passed boringly until the day you appeared. Then it seems to be happiness, joy. What we bring to each other is excruciating pain, choking nostalgia.
