unlabelledView post →I’m such a britaphile. If you ever want to see a film that will change your life watch Mothering Sunday. Heartbreaking film that shows how classism is a terrible system.
unlabelledView post →Josh O’Connor clearly wants to be able to and is making a damn good show of it. And more power to him given how puritanical film and audiences have gotten. Frontal in God's Own Country, Hide and Seek, and Mothering Sunday, then backal(?) in Challengers, Only You, and Bridgend.

Over the course of the first portion of the film we learn that she has been having a dalliance with "Paul" (Josh O'Connor), the son of the neighbouring "Sheringham" family.
