A.J. Carter

Lifelong fan of the books. I could drown in this film. Noomi Rapache and Jared Harris as supporting actors? It gets even better. Seamless integration of Pace and plot. The actors and dialogue draw a full range of emotions. It's ludicrously over the top when necessary, to great effect. Yet there is always a steadily increasing sense of peril. It oozes, ( lots of ) money well spent in it's set pieces. One of which ( frozen forest ) recurs in my dreams. Cheeky little ending. Partner, nice soup, good bread. Perhaps a snifter? Job done.
