Four Letters of Love review: a by-the-book adaptation Adapted from the popular novel by Niall Williams, Four Letters of Love pairs two coming-of-age tales with plenty of sincerity but not much style.

My first ever review in Sight and Sound: Four Letters of Love, an adaptation of Niall William’s best selling novel, directed by Polly Steele.

Sinner's forehand I just love. It's so viscious, I don't know how it stays in.

It's like the tennis equivalent of Deontay Wilder's right hook.

It was fantastic to go on a journey of memories, ideas and cinematic discoveries with Mark Jenkin in this podcast conversation. One for true appreciators of cinema as a unique experience and not mere content in a wasteland of visual noise.
