Featured review
'' Small Things Like These '' is a film based on a novella by the same title from the author Claire Keegan and, trully, it follows the book closely, presenting the story with a straight storyline and only a few flashbacks.
The story is quite moving, intriguing, sad, melancholic, and yet, hopeful and it overall feels like Christmas. The atmosphere is spot on, the cinematography brilliant, even the camera lenses were just the right ones to give the story that perfect setting.
In addition, the performances by everyone in the cast were briliant, but Cillian Murphy is just the right man for the right role in this one.
