Catherine Danielle "Kya" Clark (Daisy Edgar-Jones)
Favorite scene with
Catherine Danielle "Kya" Clark (Daisy Edgar-Jones) - Confronted by Chase. After an argument ensues, he attacks her, beating her and attempting to rape her. She fends him off and loudly threatens to kill him if he doesn't leave her alone. BTW #1, I Loved this Movie! BTW #2, Produced by Reese Witherspoon, it's a Very Beautiful and Very Haunting Film that leaves you Guessing up until The Very End. Just when you think it was either a Very Tragic Accident or an Unsolved Murder, the Truth is Revealed. BTW #3, I Love that this Film was a Period Piece. BTW #4, This Film is Up There with some of my other Favorites of a Similar Nature - The Help, Fried Green Tomatoes, and Driving Miss Daisy. - lachyna13 - 6 January 2023
Enjoy it for what it is
I like to go into movies without expectations and just take it for what it is. I didn't read the book so my review is solely based on the movie. The cinematography is beautiful and it captures the essence of living in the marshlands. The actors did a great job at portraying believable characters. I felt Kya's pain from the moment her family left her to constant betrayals she endured and the victim in question succeeding in making you deeply despise him. It was a touching story told through flashbacks that keeps your attention as you watch the trial unfold. If you like to simply enjoy things for what they are, I definitely recommend this movie.
