Saw the film last night. Were it not based on a true story, it would be revoltingly schmaltzy, and I’m sure the true story has been heavily fictionalised in order to make it play well as a film, but it was an excellent film, which surprised me quite massively, as normally Akiva Goldsman’s (the writer of the screenplay) involvement in a film is a pretty clear signal that the film will be shit. But no, this was good, and well worth the time.
