A few nights ago, Gannon and I watched Never Let Me Go. I read the novel of the same name, by Kazuo Ishiguro, a couple of years ago and was not impressed. At the time, I thought the plot would make a great movie, I just didn't particularly like his writing style. According to a Newsweek review of the movie, he tries to write in a way that would make his novels "unfilmable", however I think the film version was excellent, much better than the book.
I'm not a huge Kiera Knightly fan, but her scrunchy features were perfect for portraying a jealous and selfish Ruth. I am, however, a big fan of Carey Mulligan and Andrew Garfield, and I thought they were adorable :) I would recommend this film to someone looking to watch a beautiful, quiet, and haunting movie.
