Ammonite

Full review: https://www.tinakakadelis.com/beyond-the-cinerama-dome/2021/12/28/between-a-rock-and-a-hard-place-ammonite-review Despite the fact that production and filming began prior to Celine Sciamma’s exquisite _Portrait of a Lady on Fire_, Francis Lee’s _Ammonite_ was released after it and cannot escape the comparison. The two films are similar in that both take place in secluded oceanside locales, focus on a lesbian relationship, and are period pieces. However, that is where the similarities end. While _Portrait of a Lady on Fire_ soars, _Ammonite_ stumbles.
