This is a slow-burner, but patient viewers will be rewarded. "I've Love You So Long" strikes a fine balance between the sombre tone necessitated by the subject matter and refreshing, unexpected moments of joy. Kristin Scott Thomas' performance is a heavy weight for viewers to bear, but viewers should commit to sharing her journey. At the end you will likely conclude that the painstaking construction of her lead character is a nuanced success.
