This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
