This isn’t really a review, but I see a lot of myself in Lars, as far as interactions and awkwardness go. I loved this movie.
I dont know if it exist anywhere but I was jealous about the wholesome community feel this movie gave me, being born and raised in a city.
Ryan Gosling is incredible in this film. It’s uncomfortable, but executed to perfection. It’ll hit you in the feels, I promise you that.
An odd but enjoyable indie feel-good flick.
Ryan Gosling knoocks one out of the park. Thought provoking and moving.
Heartfelt uncomfortable dramady that focus on different type of mental health & it struggles that have sad/funny parts.Gosling is incredible
Heart warming. Character study. In line with our times.
Approaches supporting mental health in a positive and constructive way. I cried.
this is a sad movie that moves kind of slow but is worth the watch when you have the blues
Guy from notebook unwilling to settle for less than a perfect lady
