This could have been a decent film but I'm yet again beside myself due to the film's marketing! IT. IS. NOT. A. ROMANCE. WHEN. THE. "APPOINTED". COUPLE. HAS. THREE. CONVERSATIONS. DURING. THE. WHOLE. GODDAMN. FILM. This is a historical drama that mainly focuses on a bright-eyed author backtracing the life of another woman who lived under the Nazi regime. The romantic life of the author is completely irrelevant to the main plot of the film. SO THIS DOES NOT QUALIFY AS A ROMANCE!

I liked it, but it was a predictable love story kind of movie. Lily James and Michiel Huisman have good onset chemistry that makes you "care" about their characters. The ex-boyfriend was too predictable to be of any real conflict to the plot.

W4E1P1S1V2M1A2R2. Tugs at the heartstrings, a stellar cast, and a nice dose of history, even if formulaic.

Until the 3rd act, this does a decent job of making viewers who aren't into romance novels forget they're watching a filmed version of one by focusing on historical elements, which is appropriate given the likeable cast. By the end, a great deal of eyerolling is likely to occur as it embraces every implausible trope of the genre. A bigger problem is having an ostensibly sympathetic character fall in love w/ someone we learn next to nothing about except that he serves under the worst human ever.
