❝I had another family. A mother. A brother. I can still see their faces.❞
❝You've come a long way, haven't you, little one?❞

I don't care if this film is Oscar bait, it's absolutely heart-wrenching and I cried enough to fill a bathtub. Lion is a beautifully made biography about love and perseverance, and the fact that so many children go through similar situations without a happy ending is just so tragic. Dev Patel gave a brilliant performance, but Sunny Pawar completely stole the show; the casting director really chose the kid with the biggest doe eyes and cutest voice to break my heart, and oh boy did it shatter into a million pieces when he woke up on that train calling for Guddu. An excellent film, overall, but I can't rewatch it anytime soon or I'll have a heart attack.
