Ian McEwan's novel Atonement found life in the visually resplendent film adaptation by Joe Wright. Starring Keira Knightley, James McAvoy, and Saoirse Ronan, the movie tells a story of devastation caused by a lie in the context of World War II. Its sweeping cinematography, particularly the Dunkirk one-shot sequence, drew critical acclaim. The film garnered seven Oscar nominations and won Best Original Score. McEwan appreciated the movie for its faithfulness to his novel.
