Is It a Sin Written by Al Hazan Performed by Ellie Hazan
Plot
An up-and-coming chef and a recently divorced woman find their lives changed forever when a chance meeting brings them together in a decade-long, deeply moving romance. Director John Crowley also cast Andrew Garfield in Garfield’s first feature film, Boy A (2007)..
I went to see this movie during a free screening
I had high hopes because the two main actors are phenomenal actors. I wanted to love this movie, but it felt disjointed.
You will recognize the characters
In most films where something mysterious/emotional happens, there is a build-up. You feel a connection with them.
In this case, there was no such increase
It was hard to really feel anything from what was happening. I’m also not a fan of movies where they stitch together multiple timelines that jump back and forth.
This movie was meant for Netflix, not the big screen
Especially when there’s little to tell which timeline you’re looking at. Check out our list of exciting new films from this year’s film festivals, including Venice, TIFF, New York and more.
