If it helps, in the book their ages are 17 and 24
That definitely changes my perspective. Odd they chose a 31 year old actor to play Oliver.

Watched The Shape Of Water last night. Strange movie that I expected to forward though most of but actually found myself invested all the way through. Wasn't bad. 7/10

Also watched The Disaster Artist. This one was brilliant! That Tommy Wiseau sure is a weird unit and James Franco nailed it. 9/10

I watched "Darkest Hour", if you are into Politics and WWII History you will enjoy this as I did.

Luke grows a beard? No more spoilers, please! A friend once tried to tell me some alleged plot twist involving Luke & Darth Vader, but I covered my ears and told her to shut up.

Great movie and one of the best I have seen in a long time. Not what I expected.
Was hoping for the movie to go on for another 15 minutes, so we could get some closure; as it was left somewhat open ended.

I could really relate to the frustration of the victims's mother, with the perceived lack of progress by local police in the solving of her daughters murder.
Many poignant scenes involving lack of communication between all parties, jumping to conclusions, and second-guessing each other, none of which end well for the characters.

Woody and Rockwell were simply magnificent as the police officers, and are BOTH AA nominated for best supporting actor; when was the last time that happened?!

Frances surely will win AA best actress? I might riot if she doesn't....
