It could surely have told a better-focused story.May 05, 2018
The Guernsey Literary Pie and Potato Pie Society may be a mouthful of a title, yet the film is nourishment for the heart and soul.April 25, 2018
This handsomely shot, elegant and engaging film by and large avoids the cloying winsomeness of its title to paint a vivid portrait of an era...April 18, 2018
They've disentangled the novel's dramatic and romantic complications to a fault; if it's possible to merely amble in place, that's what the storytelling in "Guernsey" does for protracted stretches of screen time.May 03, 2018
