Our take on The Age of Adaline

Lee Toland Krieger's 2015 romantic drama-fantasy imagines a woman freed from and imprisoned by time. After 29-year-old Adaline survives a nearly fatal accident, she inexplicably stops aging, and the decades pass while she stays outwardly unchanged. To protect herself, she guards her secret and keeps others at a distance until a man arrives who begins to change how she lives. Elegant and wistful, the film treats immortality as a source of loneliness rather than wonder, meditating on love, loss and the cost of never letting anyone close. It suits viewers who like graceful, melancholy romances with a fantastical premise over fast-moving plotting.
