Never Let You Go

On the flight home from Toronto, I watched the film version of Never Let Me Go.  I read that book last year. What a haunting film. I was overall quite impressed by the adaptation, and I thought the three leads were perfectly cast.  Carey Mulligan was coolly calm, impassioned yet aching in her role as Kathy H. Keira Knightly was an impassioned Ruth, and Andrew Garfield fit the mold of rebellious yet hopeful Tommy.  The ethical issues of cloning were subtle and not.  These were human being, rife with emotion, and not some automatons that should be sacrificed for science. Just like the book, you never saw Kathy meet her fate. But you were haunted by what would happen to her, just as what happened to both Ruth and Tommy. Very good film.
