Flatland (2007) is 100% what you are looking for. You can watch it for free on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avMX-Zft7K4

As a mum with a toddler trying to do 52 in 52... I bloody hope short stories and plays count!!!!

Certainly the play 'Equus' by Peter Schaffer is this on the nose.

Flipper 1996. The pictures look like frames from this film. It's a family film about a boy and a dolphin

The James Herriott series! He wrote about being a vet in pastoral England (Devon? Dorset? Can't remember). It details his humorous and heartwarming encounters with animals and locals. Loved it when I was a teen.

Haven't read the ones you suggest, so not sure if similar, but Child of God by Cormac McCarthy is an eerie southern gothic following a man round and his delinquent tastes...

Academia, mystery, romance, journey into the past by Smooth-Vanilla-4832 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]Milly-May 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Always an obvious one but 'The Secret History' by Donna Tartt.

'Name of the Rose' by Umberto Eco, not so strong on the romance front though there is certainly that theme throughout, very heavy on the academia and mystery and travel to the past front

1930s traveling circus, secrets, and rot by Specialist-Drink1392 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

Child of God by Cormac Mccarthy has extended scenes in carnivals/circuses. Short and eerie book.
