This movie is filled with beauty and optimism, balanced equally with absolute heartbreak. Olivia Cooke delivers an incredible performance as Katie, who somehow maintains hope in spite of some pretty horrible circumstances. Christopher Abbott is equally compelling in the movie. While the film certainly could be seen as "depressing" as some other reviewers have said, the message of the film seems quite clear to me: there is always hope. No matter how bad things get, no matter how much pain and heartbreak you endure, you get up and dust yourself off and keep pressing on. I believe Katie didn't give up on her dreams and worked her way into a better life. I love this film.
