As with other recent lesbian period pieces (Ammonite comes to mind) this movie has been unfairly compared with Portrait of a Lady on Fire. As with Ammonite this movie is extremely understated and the point of the movie isn't so much about a potential relationship as it is about how few options women had in the not-too-distant past. I thought that movie smartly knew how to begin and end the story and it didn't overstay its welcome. The two leads are fantastic and Affleck also shines in an understated supporting role.
