Yes, I was referring to the biopic. I would say that what Dmitra Fimi wrote in her blog pretty much speak for me: "I found myself in split personality mode while watching the film. There were moments when I poked my poor husband next to me and whispered: “this isn’t right!”. And yet, there were moments when I was entertained, and charmed, and even moved to tears."
TLS review of Dome Karukoski biopic “Tolkien” [Unfortunately, the TLS review itself is subscription so I wasn't able to read it.]
I thought the relationships with Edith and with the TCBS (and with Prof. Wright, though he really was an amalgamation of several different characters) were very successfully done. I actually thought the cellar door scene was wonderful, even though I hated the clip of it that I saw, and I really thought that Edith came alive as a character. I was not as bothered by the hallucinations of scenes from his future works as I thought I would be; they actually worked well in the context of the war scenes, which were effectively horrible. Even the invention of his trying to find G.B Smith, which I thought would really thought would bother me, actually did not; I thought it worked okay. Some of it was a little clunky and slow (though the pace didn't bother me as much as it
did John Rateliff, with whom I usually am pretty much in agreement with about most things).
I would have liked it if they had been able to talk more about what Tolkien wrote at that time, particularly the Lost Tales, and the long fragments of verse that was later published in
The Lays of Beleriand, but I would guess that they did not have the rights to do so. But they did nicely reflect Tolkien's love of trees. And his brilliance, and the heartbreak and love that honed it, come through.
