A friend said she thought it was a good movie.
I found it engrossing, and a skillful, complex structure of moral quandaries. I found it warmer and sweeter than the book (and to call a work with this material sweet is something). Credit to Kate Winslet, in what must have been a challenging role, and the male lead(s), both younger and older versions. Manohla Dargis, in a scathing review, calls it self-pitying and a way to make us feel better about the Holocaust by embalming it in good taste and high production values. I think she was in a bad mood.
