I can’t describe how or why I felt so fully immersed in the emotions of this movie. The overwhelming storytelling masterfully intertwines themes of love, resilience, and human complexity, keeping you captivated from start to finish. Its emotional depth is unparalleled, leaving a lasting impact that resonates profoundly. Every element, from the performances to the subtle use of music, feels perf

In my personal opinion, I found this film to be truly remarkable. While I believe there were moments where it could have been improved, particularly in terms of the actress's performance, overall, I was pleasantly surprised by how well the movie "Where the Crawdads Sing" was executed. Some scenes may have not been as impactful on the big screen as I had hoped, but I must commend Reese Witherspo

**_The challenges of growing up (alone) in the shoreline swamps of the Carolinas_** In the 60s, a girl (Daisy Edgar-Jones) comes-of-age in coastal North Carolina, where she’s an outcast known as “the marsh girl.” When a local hotshot is found dead (Harris Dickinson), the community thinks she’s the culprit. Taylor John Smith plays a male friend and David Strathairn her lawyer. Based on the 2

**While well done and well told, it is not a movie I would return to.** Where the Crawdads Sing is a lingering sorrowful tale of an abandoned young woman finding her purpose and strength in the isolation of nature. The story mourns the abuses and judgments the protagonist faces as nearly every relationship in her life betrays her. Yet, she remains hopeful, kind, and gentle after all that. The m

MORE SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS @ https://www.msbreviews.com/ "Where the Crawdads Sing is one of the biggest surprises of the year - may the extraordinary box office result serve as proof. A survival story - on many levels - that tackles heavy trauma, the power of nature, prejudice, hypocrisy, and many other topics in a thematically rich screenplay.

Split opinion on this. Overall, though, I think my thoughts regarding it are, just narrowly, positive. <em>'Where the Crawdads Sing'</em> is a tad overlong and I'm not sold on the ending, though even so I think I like this enough. The acting is the big reason for that, with Daisy Edgar-Jones standing out alongside David Strathairn. Taylor John Smith and Garret Dillahunt are solid elsewhere. Awa

Daisy Edgar-Jones is really quite good in this adaptation of the Delia Owens story of a young girl left to her own devices in 1950s America. One by one her mother, siblings and finally her father abandon her to bring herself up. She takes to fishing for mussels in order to try to make ends meet, and is generally shunned by her community. Except, that is for her childhood friend "Tate" (a good effo

By January 2022, the book had sold 12 million copies, making it one of the best-selling books of all time. Almost everyone in the theatre, yesterday afternoon, had read the book and were wondering if the movie could be as good as the book, so in my exit poll, of a dozen, or so, viewers, I asked then specifically, “Did the movie do justice to the book?” Without exception they said it had.
