Just read first story. Enjoyable reflection with a curious charming ending. If ever i get lost in the woods on a cold day with snowflakes slowly covering me in this last stage of my life, i will remember the story and see Margaret Atwood's visage looking at me. Saying 'See, I told you so'.

Interesting personal view by this photographer. I like the commentary but many of the images are unimpressive but wonderful motivation as i often find inspiration for poems from images both my own and of others. I do recommend it worth seeing and readinh.

Enjoyed it very much. Glenda Jackson was a tour de force in her very short supporting role.

Wonderful overall but i could find any mention of Marty Robbins who was a very special performer who played at The Opry and had numerous hits. A much beloved artist who died far yoo young. How in the world could he have been excluded? Shame on the film makers.

i love watching Jeanne Crain movies. Great premise and acting by Thelma Ritter and Jeanne Crain is very good, but Scott Brady, the romantic lead for Jeanne Crain's character is badly cast.. He just doesn't have the appeal as an appropriate love interest for Crain. Really kind of ruins the overall enjoyment of this movie. One would have thought that the producers and director would have made a better choice for that role.
I liked the movie except for Scott Brady.. His performance just made me cringe. the movie with Jeanne Crain, William Holden also on You Tube, much more satisfying... About a young couple renting an attic apartment from a retired Professor . forgot the title.. Very pleasing to see with much warmth of characters...

Heart rending... great cast.
I love this film. Too bad S.McQueen and Natalie Wood didn't make other films.

the introduction mentions adoration of women with the famous Song of Songs as the model, but the photographs strike me as more about the photographer's creative efforts than adoration of women shown. I did like some of the images in which i could see the women's faces but so many seem (to me) to corrupt the idea of celebrating the beauty of women with more focus on the fame of the photographer. Very interesting book to be sure, and it was published int he late nineties. The version i saw was printed in 2017 after the passing of Kezys in 2015. Perhaps i don't have the perception to appreciate this work, but it was disappointing to me. I like works that highlight the subject, not the artist.

Enjoyed it very much. I find some of the reviews are merely the reviewers trying to show their wisdom from arrogance but only demonstrating their ignorance and stupidity. Not sure about the cheering at end of movie - doesn't seem real but perhaps there is a factual basis. Surprised the subs tried to fight on surface. Still Hanks gave a great performance

Wonderful film. Multilayered.
One keeps hoping that someone will stand up for the abused wife and rescue her from this mostly dysfunctional family but the screenplay is very nuanced reflecting both reality in the world and a culture of abuse with many victims. It isnt just india or in muslim theocracies but in every country in the world.
We have our own share of such dysfunctio in canada.
