Director: Mike Newell. Cast: Lily James, Matthew Goode, Tom Courtenay. 124 min. UK/France/USA. Historical/Romance.
In post-war England, a writer becomes curious about a war-time book club's name (the movie's title), and later, how a certain member of the club vanished during the war, and how the guilt of her vanishing had kept other members up at night since then. While there are some romantic/melodramatic subplots, and while the prolonged duration hurts the film's momentum, the common theme is: doing what you think is right, instead of stalling to regret it later. Actually, the movie provoked me to take action on something I was hesitant about for some time, and it worked out well.
PS: Thanks for the recommendation, Maryam!
PPS: Available on Netflix.

"Suite Francaise" 2014
Seriously when it comes to Michelle Williams there is no way you may waste your time to watch her brilliant, believable and sensitive character. She is master of these roles.
And it's quite shocking to see Margot Robbie in a funny, insignificant and short role just after her huge success in " wolf of wall street "! I was wondering why she might have accepted it ? and now I read in trivia she was dating third assistant director in this movie and finally got married !people are amazing!
Available on Netflix.
