“Ultimately the story of a woman finding her own voice and asserting her independence and that will be the heart of its appeal. ”
Aroview: A startling Elle Fanning enlivens this period melodrama about Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin's romantic relationship with the poet Percy Shelley, which inspired her to write Frankenstein, much to the chagrin of her sexist contemporaries in the literary elite. From the Saudi director of the acclaimed WADJDA.

3 stars (Good Enough) Elle Fanning well done - another good performance which stands out from those of some drippy male characters. ~Tubbs
4 stars (Very Good) Great true literary story. Progressive reconstruction of the complex lives & relations of some of the greatest English writers in history. Very avante-garde & interesting. 127 mins. ~Sandy
