Line of Events
Brilliant but emotionally guarded Caro Drake arrives at Oxford with the sole aim of earning her doctorate, but through a turbulent friendship with a charming young man, she begins to open herself up to mystery, vulnerability, and love. Carolyn Weber, author of the book on which the biographical novel is based, was in attendance, along with actress Rose Reid, who played Caro Drake in the film, and other members of the production.

.. I knew nothing about this film, I arrived, there was an introduction by the author of the book on which it is based – Carolyn Weber, and the producer too.
And I have to admit this movie is pretty good
The intro goes on about it being a romance, which it sort of is, but it really focuses on the main character – Carolyn’s life from her childhood in America to her years in Oxford, England. Roes Reid is brilliant as Carolyn, who struggles with her studies, a strange romance and if she is religious, after meeting Kent Weber, played convincingly, by Ruairi C’est Connor.
I give 75/10 because I was surprised by Oxford
Carolyn really questions her life and what she really wants and what she thinks of others. Oxford looks really nice, Ryan Whitaker’s direction is perfect, capturing the Oxford backdrop, with the cast featuring Simon Callow, Jordan Alexandra, Emma Naomi, a very memorable Lourdes Faberes, and the gorgeous Phyllis Logan, who is quite mercurial and very stiff at first, but is also a real driving force.
But I don’t think I would like to study or work there
