Honestly I was hugely unimpressed. The screenwriter must have worked some magic because in text, the characters seemed not mentally ill, but mentally deficient. And the football references were tedious to read. I haven’t seen the film yet, but it was nominated for so many awards that I have high hopes despite how really boring the book on which it is based was. I will update you.
