dark emotional inspiring reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character

I thought it was an achievement.

After a while though I started to feel a little irritated at the "Here it is then. Here is this and that. Here is this, and here is that" repetition. But I was wondering if it was enough for me to give it a lower rating, and concluded that it wasn't.

Quite a well-deserved Pulitzer, in my opinion.
