"A real classic about love, life, and consequences. "
Lea
"Sometimes the movie is better than the book. Absolutely atrocious writing and a protagonist who resembles no actual human you will ever meet. Rent the movie: Streep and Eastwood find something wonderful in an otherwise hackneyed story."
Lesley Williams
