This introduced me to the music of John Grant, who remains my favorite. Haunting, layered, and electric — worth watching for this alone.
Well the story looks simple, but damn, one of the most "makes you think and ask one self a few important questions" kinda movie. Great :]
Cool concept, one weekend - one relationship - one movie... Loved the cast and dialogue
It’s a pretty sweet romance with a bittersweet end... I recommend it!
Realistic and well-acted. A bit depressing though.
Intimate, simple, sad, simple. I enjoyed it
Cute but some moments are really slow...
Awh this film was heart-wrenching. Great to watch on a rainy Sunday.
An intimate drama that doesn't try to do anything particularly spectacular, but an important story nonetheless.
It's a simple film and a bit slow but lifted by an emotionally charged, tender and compelling story with powerful performances
