  • Rating: 0.5 out of 5 stars
    Horrible. experiment in film making. A film with no point, no sense and no continuity. Margaret Qualley is the anorexic talking about everything except. Her appearance is skelettal. Her voice is cavernous. It's bad.

    As a person who loves reading, this is like a film I would dream of myself inside. I mean, everybody would love to live in a cheap apartment in NY, have coffee and write for hours. Such a dream. And the film just makes the dream come to life. The characters talking to us, that was my favorite part. They're not talking, they're reading letters, reading their emotions, not just telling them, they actually sound like they are reading to us, which makes the film more beautiful. And the fact that this is based on a true story is just crazy, quiet amazing.

    It's a very sweet character study movie. You should watch it when you're not looking for something heavy. All the actors are quite excellent. Someone compared it to The Devil Wears Prada and of course it's a similar situation but this isn't a comedy and doesn't try to be. It's actually more like The Devil Wears Prada - the book. I quite enjoyed it and agree more with the critics than the public in this review. That it got less appreciation by the public is surprising.

    Surprisingly entertaining. A very well told story. I enjoyed it.

    It's a blank page upon which nothing is written but a lot of name-dropping and insipid moments by some drippy characters that don't mean anything. Dismal and unwatchable.

    I really appreciated all the insider gossip about the New York City based publishing industry and all the eccentric characters and business practices behind some of my favourite books and authors. The romance and personal development was sadly a bit less interesting, but overall I loved it.
