In a world where everyone's heart is an object and there's a strong societal pressure to dampen emotion, lonely Virtual Insurance broker Anabel always follows her heart. At odds with this overly pragmatic society, and after a series of devastating emotional blows, she rips her heart from her chest and gives it to a man she's fallen for, the strangely unfeeling George. Unburdened by her unique yet cumbersome heart, Anabel finds life easier. George, on the other hand, begins to feel everything, to the shock of his overbearing mother, Mona. Anabel soon realizes she needs to get her heart back if she's going to survive.

With elements of magic realism, 'With Love and a Major Organ' addresses our inability to connect to each other... It stretches our imagination while asking us to acknowledge the courage it takes to be true to one’s own ‘heart’.

This abstract story is bolstered by compelling performances all around. Maguire breaks then repairs our heart as the alternately messy and rigid Anabel, fully committing to both ends of the emotional spectrum.

7/10

Twisty, clever, and pleasingly genuine, the romantic fantasy With Love and a Major Organ balances humour, cynicism, and hopefulness with a deft hand and a great deal of emotional intelligence.

A-

Director Albright does a wonderful job of constructing an oddly affecting science-fiction realm that sits at the emotional cusp of believable and enchanting.

3 out of 5 stars

An ambitious effort, the film exists in a world where the human heart is made of an inanimate object and one can literally rip it out to avoid emotions.
