Dear bees, I am telling you this with love (in the event that you might choose to sting me otherwise). The film was okay - the story was interesting, and the rigid time period was well portrayed. However, there was a little too much melodrama, the script was sometimes heavy handed, and the acting wasn't always on point (from the humans, not your insectile sisterhood). So, sorry for the sting in this tale, but the film wasn't as good as it could have been. Tell me to buzz off if you want to dear bees, but that is all I have to say on the matter.

I can't even explain the amount of fellings that i've had watching this movie. Is the type of movie that leaves you thinking after and reflect in a whole life, simply gourgeous. Very delicad and affectionate in a lot of moments, and revolting in others. Very well told story and period very well ambiented in all the scenerios and costums. It's beautiful seeing there blossoming love, from the vision of a child, after they grown up enough to undestard what happend. I end up with a bittersweat felling about the ending, but was the most real and happy that it could been in that time period.

Anna Paquin and Holliday Grainger star in the period drama Tell It to the Bees. The story follows a single mother who’s been abandoned by her husband and is taken in by a local doctor when she and her son are evicted from their home. The acting isn’t very good and neither is the script. It doesn’t seem to know whose story this is, and at the end it throws in some LGB propaganda; future taking it away from being a character story. A poorly made film, Tell It to the Bees meanders about and is fairly pointless.

A bit slow of a film, but it’s nice and calming and is a sweet but bitter sweetly true story about how homosexuality and the family situations were in the 1950s. As it falls a Mom and her little boy who are struggling to make meat and when the husband leaves and she begins to fall for another woman in town. But overall, it has good plot development and it is a happy story about finding your true happiness. The character development and introductions were poor, so it was a little bit complicated at least halfway through to know who was what and their backstory. Not really my cup of tea, but a decent watch.
