“I half closed my eyes and imagined this was the spot where everything I'd ever lost since my childhood had washed up, and I was now standing here in front of it, and if I waited long enough, a tiny figure would appear on the horizon across the field and gradually get larger until I'd see it was Tommy, and he'd wave, and maybe even call.”

Seen this movie twice. I like aspects of it and love depressing films, but I can't help but feel like it could have done more to live up to its potential. I hope they try to do another film adaptation one day.

At 4:48 I could have sworn she said "students who are autistic and creative tend to get preferential treatment" but then I realized I'm American so she probably said "artistic."
It's the British accent :-)

Thank you for your feedback.
Is the reciter of the novel an English woman?
Great before final exam...only the pronunciation bothers me, it is not HaLIsham but haILsham, otherwise nice
Next time could you stop talking so close to the mic. It’s really annoying
make your own video then??? rude ass comment.
Can you stop talking just next to the microphone, it's too boring (ASMR)
I am really sorry honey, but it would ve been nice if you could speak a little louder or in to the microphone. next time. thanks.
