Blake Lively has a blank stare that consumes you. At first, Russovoir thought anyone can play her role, with what only looking pretty, kissing men, and regular dialogues. And it was. It really was. The dialogue was nothing special. What made it engrossing? Blake Lively.
IKR, Russovoir is confused too. Maybe it is indeed possible to be distracted by beauty to forget everything else. Because Russovoir wouldn't have had commended Lively's performance, let alone mention it, in an order coming first than the brilliant screenplay. Regardless, the story in which The Age of Adaline is woven is so well-researched Russovoir is truly honored to have watched it.

It is not your typical, cheesy love story. It's a fantasy that has moral value, that if the concept has fallen to the wrong screenwriter, let alone the fortune of agelessness fallen to the wrong actual woman, the fantasy now ages back to the unsophisticated. Thus its sophistication, solely in respect to its storyline and script, will never age a day in the film archive. San Francisco, as their primary filming location, was at its picturesque and historical.
Blake Lively, under no spell of her beauty now, and that wishing all women possess, at least in the personal affection for Adaline Bowman, has a feminine vulnerability handled with a mature soul. That's what's engrossing about her, yes! In fact, probably engrossing if all women.
