Not the biggest romance genre fan but this really surprised me. Maybe it's because it leans heavy on the drama which I always love. At times melancholic and sweet and at other times suffocating and toxic. The two timelines (troubled relationship in the present and the romantic beginning in the past) creates a balance that feels layered, grounded and realistic. Great chemistry (and lack of chemistry when needed) between Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams. Their characters are layered and relatable. Beautiful melancholic score. The camerawork sticks out, it moves around a lot and gets claustrophobically close to the characters. I got worried towards the end that it would end too abruptly without me getting emotional but no worries, get the tissue box out for the last few minutes. Perfect ending.
