Sheri Linden The Hollywood Reporter Sharply written and sensitively played. Jan 23, 2020 Full Review Johanna Schneller Globe and Mail 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 Sep 7, 2019 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse A lovely testament to the power of empathy and forgiveness. Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 29, 2021 Full Review John Serba Decider An intimate drama that engages us for 80 minutes, and leaves us both satisfied, but also wanting a little more. Jul 14, 2020 Full Review Pat Mullen 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... Jun 18, 2020 Full Review Alex Hudson 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 Jun 17, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

AnnaB L 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 01/03/24 Full Review Carlton S 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. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/23/22 Full Review renaldo d the script and performances are beautiful, a great chronicle that tells of differences and love Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member An incredibly pleasant watch Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/21 Full Review Audience Member Slow. Boring. Shallow characters. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
