The Giver (2014)
10/10
One of my favourite films of all time!
4 September 2021
I absolutely love this film. There is such an innocence about it but it's profound at the same time! It doesn't rely on sex, or violence or anything outlandish, it's just a beautiful film! Everything about the way it's filmed, starting in black and white and slowly introducing colour, the musical score, the acting and above all the story are all so well done I can't fault them at all.

I discovered this gem of a film about 5 years ago & I loved it. I rewatched it's a year or two later and enjoyed it even more. The past 2 years I've watched it about once or twice a month. I've gone through a tough time and this film has helped me to remember the beauty in life and that even pain can be a good thing. It makes me smile, laugh and cry and is such a wonderful beautiful film! The cast were all amazing too! The lead actor, brenton thwaites, has since become a favourite of mine, he's incredibly talented! Jeff bridges and meryl Streep are on point as always! It's such a simple concept but it's so deep and profoundly moving! I can't recommend this film highly enough!
