The story revolves around the life of Mary Anning, one of the greatest fossil hunters of Britain when the scientific world was dominated by men, and her bond with Charlotte Murchison. At those times women were not allowed to attend university, to hold a public office or to cast votes. The chemistry between Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan is impeccable. This is a love story between a hardworking independent woman and one wealthy married and depressed. Summing up, I think the director did a good job and I really loved the beach scenes where you see Mary Anning working.
