Tim Miller Cape Cod Wave Magazine Two widowers meet in a morgue, with offbeat results. The story involves how people deal with the death of loved ones ... and how even strangers can help each other with the grieving process. The film is OK, but a little too self-consciously odd.

Vitoria F Beautiful short film with an ingenious script. Unusual humor like this may be the only thing capable of easing the pain of those who are suffering from the loss of a loved one. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/12/24 Full Review Devon R A moving film that masterfully blends humor with meaning. I loved this film and really hoped it would win an Oscar (and it should have). Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Dallas H It's such dark humor, but it's still an entertaining story. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/09/24 Full Review Yash B "Knight of Fortune" starts off feeling like it is going to be a super sad short film. It genuinely surprised me when it found moments of humor, sweetness, and optimism in the face of tragedy. The movie has a heartfelt feeling but is ultimately a celebration of how friendship can help get through tough times. Overall, I enjoyed it and think the unexpected humor made it stand out. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews
