The Aftermath (2019)
Directed by Joe
Shrapnel this film based on the novel of the same name stars Keira
Knightley, Alexander Skarsgard and Jason Clarke. In 1945 a British
woman heads to Hamburg to be with her husband who is an officer in
the occupation forces.
Chock full of familiar
elements this is yet another period drama where a man must repeatedly
prostrate himself on the alter of sacrifice to prove he deserves his
wife's love over some dude she has only known for a few weeks. Well
made for what it is there is just not enough original about this film
to recommend it. If you are looking for another period film to watch
this is fine but it is not very memorable.
3/5
