I saw this movie yesterday and for half an hour I thought I might be disappointed but once the movie found its feet I thoroughly enjoyed it. Visually perfect with great cinematography and art direction and the acting was outstanding, particularly Anya Taylor-Joy (an increasingly watchable and skilful actor, ) Johnny Flynn (who wrote and sang the beautiful song over the end credits, ) the ever reliable Bill Nighy and a wonderful performance from Mia Goth as Harriet. Highly recommended. Great job Autumn de Wilde!

Anya really does get into some good detail there. Really interesting to see how much thought goes into movement, gesture, and expression.
