I was glad I had listened to the two Rest is History podcasts about Oppenheimer in advance but still struggled to follow all the characters and timescales of the post war events.

I found the love scenes unnecessarily using nudity - absolutely cringeworthy and maybe men will like that bit but embarrassing or what !! Also maybe men love those sexual positions but do women ! Fed up with this influencing poor younger girls watching that.

It is definitely a period of history that we should know about and certainly it is still relevant sadly.

I felt the Big Short did better at explaining a complicated idea.

Certainly this film would have required a different style to do that but I think they could have thought of something.

I found the sound quality a little tricky and missed a few words.

I think I need subtitles!! I'm now used to that in my online viewing !

This is a good film. based on a true story so that is interesting. But told with humour. Interesting to see the fashions of the era too. And has shocking links then to what is happening today.

Good film. Great acting. You feel you are watching real life. The main girl in the film is a fabulous actor but actually all the characters are. Its a directorial debut and I think she has hit on exactly on the experience of being a girl of this age. In a new school etc. The ending is good too but I wont say more for avoidance of any spoilers !

Give it a watch. Ignore the controversy as it's no worse than what is happening in life anyway and it shows how the girls deal with all this.

Great film - please give it a try.
