B-
The heart of its story is anchored less in the rhythms of a romantic comedy or even a romantic drama than in the belief that the day-to-day realities of being a person are worthy of being immortalized. Go to Full Review Steve Pond TheWrap Sep 18, 2026
It also suggests that there’s a reason for the film, and the life it depicts, to feel scattered: grief is a complex thing, and you have to deal with whatever it throws at you. Go to Full Review Ty Burr Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack) Sep 18, 2026
