A Hardborough une bourgade du nord de l’Angleterre, en 1959 la vie suit tranquillement son cours, jusqu'au jour où Florence Green, décide de racheter The Old House, une bâtisse désaffectée pour y ouvrir sa librairie. Cela ne plaît pas à tout le monde, et en particulier aux notables du coin. Lorsque la libraire se met à vendre le sulfureux roman de Nabokov, Lolita, la communauté sort soudain de sa torpeur et manifeste une férocité insoupçonnée. (Septième Factory)

I love books, and maybe that's why I ended up giving this an extra star, even though it’s not my usual style. But I have to say, The Bookshop is a beautifully simple human drama about Florence Green, a woman who tries to navigate life and opens a bookstore in a picturesque English town. The people around her feel like they’re straight out of a Shakespearean play—sometimes kind, sometimes downright cruel—and the film really explores those relationships. Emily Mortimer plays the melancholic Florence with such grace, but Bill Nighy steals the show. He plays her male counterpart with such ease and elegance that his character quickly became one of my all-time favorites. The Bookshop totally clicked with me. It’s the kind of film that surprises you when you go in with no expectations and then completely sweeps you away with its mood and charm.
