I took a page out of justheretofillthevoid’s book and watched a movie shortly after waking up, while drinking my coffee. It was lovely and something I expect to do more often!
Something I loved about this movie is it felt real. It wasn’t a stretch of the imagination to think these characters exist, or love each other. Seems small but a lot of movies get it slightly off, so I appreciate it when it happens.
As most people have shared, yes this move is about grief, but I think they did a phenomenal job of showing generational trauma. That which isn’t dealt with, in this case because it was so atrocious and their grandma just needed to survive, is passed down until it demands to be felt.
Overall, a very human film that made me feel a lot of things💗
