The Movie My Life 
Neither looks nor acting of Elle Fanning impresses me, and I regard her sister in much higher esteem. I remember Tom Sturridge from Far from the Madding Crowd and despite his “handsome” looks, he is always so unlikable somehow. I just hope my fears prove wrong because I am really in love with the novel and its author.
You’re not the first to say that about the Fanning sisters. 🤓 I agree about Sturridge. For me, it may be because I’ve only ever really seen him play unlikeable characters. Perhaps he just has that kind of look. He’s been typecast! 😁
More than Sturridge and Fanning, its Booth that makes me cautious about how this movie will turn out. I say that mainly because of his work in Jupiter Ascending (2015).
