Maybe the best film I've seen this year. Lily James is not only a charismatic presence on the screen, she has both an outward and inner beauty that currently is hard to match. Based on a best selling novel, this film has not only top notch acting right down to a four year old girl but wonderful dialogue, an intriguing story of some mystery, beautiful scenery and tight direction without any excess shots. Without giving anything away I felt myself willing Ms James to do the right thing and what a convincing actress she's turned out to be after first entrancing us walking down that staircase in Downton Abbey if you saw that. As a footnote, look out for at least three other actors from Downton. I loved this film and rarely give 10 stars.
