Sharply written and sensitively played.

I believe that people behaving well can be every bit as dramatic as people behaving badly. Here's a movie that proves me right, softly.

Rated: 3/4

An intimate drama that engages us for 80 minutes, and leaves us both satisfied, but also wanting a little more.

That Shelf

Fuelled by a never-better Heather Graham, who hasn't been given a role this strong in years and relishes the opportunity at hand, the film rests on a strong quartet of women...

Exclaim!

As a small-scale examination of a unique form of grief, it packs a lot of emotional complexity into a small package.

Rated: 7/10

Well acted but such a hard to believe premise that most characters seemed to behave in bizarre ways for the predicament they found themselves in. The writing made an unrealistic 'cute happy ending' from a highly fraught dynamic and made death seem easy to get over. Just felt hard to believe, all around.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

How in the world this can be critically praised is beyond me. Nothing about it is realistic. Nothing about it is interesting. Take away the upper class trappings and you get a huge yawn. Just not a good movie, as I could write something just as good in any given afternoon...and I'm don't write screenplays. I just think as a project and as a viewer I can expect more.

Heather Graham is amazing in this film. She and the rest of the cast are great. There is so much feeling and emotion. I loved it.
