Out of Africa

from reading some reviews, i thought i was going into some great, based on a real story, romance (especially after seeing this won an oscar) but in reality it felt like a movie about a situationship that didn’t move me.

i did enjoy meryl streep’s character, Karen and her personal arc with her farm, but that was about it

kinda bummed, i was hoping to really like this

40 years later still very watchable

Best Picture Oscar winner 1986 (58th Academy Awards)
My Rating: 7.5/10

Nominated for 11 Oscar’s and won 7. Meryl Streep and Robert Redford? Love them. But, this movie is very slow and I probably wouldn’t watch it again. The cinematography was breathtaking.

i thought it was beautiful and well acted but i really did not fuck with it. i then realized this was just made for a completely different audience and that’s okay.
