Reviews
This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
