God's Own Country plot

Young Johnny Saxby runs his ailing father's farm in Yorkshire, England. The communication between father and son reflects their negative living and working conditions. The father's expressions are usually limited to succinct criticism of his son. Johnny's grandmother takes a stoic attitude. A frustrated Johnny goes through his grueling daily routine. In an attempt to escape the hard daily grind, he occasionally has superficial sexual relations and drinks in the pubs. In the spring, a Romanian farmhand is recruited for the season. He is the same age as Johnny, who at first looks at him with suspicion. However, the initial tension between the two men quickly fades and the two develop an intense relationship that deeply affects Johnny.

Beautiful movie. Beautiful locations. Cold, whimsical and chilly, but still a really beautiful environment. Sometimes beautiful music is also added. Unfortunately not that often. I'm going to listen to the soundtrack again. The actors all play very well. Especially the conversations between son, grandma and dad are great to watch. I actually thought Gemma Jones was the best playing. What an actress. She plays the grandmother. The rest is fantastic too. Really worth watching this movie. What a classic of its genre.

Excellent film about a farmer's son who receives temporary help from a guest worker on the farm. Farm life is portrayed raw and realistic, but also with enough beauty. The influence of the budding relationship on the main character's attitude and behavior is well portrayed by Josh O'Connor. Nice movie.
