Review of Time Still Turns the Pages

My god. As a survivor of abuse and depression i wasn't expecting much from this because directors always get it wrong. Nobody is truly able to capture the pain of a life like that. But this may be the first movie to do so. This film made me cry several times in the cinema because of the pain i felt for eli and his story and it made me appreciate that i survived my past because as this movie shows, not everyone does. Eli may not be real but children like him exist, and this film does their stories justice. It does my story justice. Definitely one of the best films i've ever watched, no doubt about it.
