[quote=Anonymous]It is a very sad and very moving movie. And book! The book hit me like a gut punch. As a mother myself, I found Agnes journey through motherhood interesting and her journey through grief devastating (Jessie Buckley earned every award she won.) For me, the ending was beautifully cathartic. Her grief was real and so was the healing that came through seeing her grief, and her husband’s grief, externalized through the play. When it ended, I felt hopeful and peaceful - and emotionally wrung out. I suppose that’s why some of us like sad things. As humans, we are naturally sympathetic to other humans and sad movies and books are a safe way to feel big emotions. Working through artificially sad emotions over two hours, really does help my brain and my body work through my real sad emotions. But it’s not for everyone! OP, I’m glad you know your limits and keep away from media that you find unhelpful. [/quote]
