6/18/17 review of film The Book of Henry, dir. by Colin Trevorrow


Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the film The Book of Henry, directed by Colin Trevorrow.

The thread gives a summary of the film. It gives some context on why I went to see the film -- namely, Maddie Ziegler's performance. It gives some criticisms of the film, namely its occasional derivative feel and its patchy dialogue. It compares the film favorably to The Lovely Bones. It discusses some of the film's positive statements about women and mothers. It discusses some of the psychological aspects of the film in a lot of depth. It also discusses some of the performances I liked.

I saw this film at the Harkins Theatres Northfield 18 theater in Denver, Colorado.
