I'm 3/4 into the film and so far it is nothing about her success and what made her writing so special and appeal to millions of people worldwide. Just a boring story of her love affair with an older man. A relationship that crated a son. But, it could be any story of any of 10th of thousands of young women having affairs with older men. Sad, of course, but nothing special to Astrid Lindgren. This is really a missed opportunity as I believe her success story as an author could be really interesting and entertaining. I really would have understood how she was discovered and how she fought her way to the very top.
