Great movie. Olivia Wilde just radiates pain throughout the whole thing. I'm also writing this review because of the spoiler alert below me.
Love the miracle of ending; the appearance of an elephant.
Slow, haunting + sad.
Extremely boring and slow. The ending was odd if anything.
Wonderful cast of actors! Heart wrenching story. Wish the ending was even happier for one specific character. Love the cinematography...even the tall grass stalks were bowed and sobbing. You feel the pain.
