It's quite a different story, although not that unknown.
What is it about? Somehow two people becoming friends. The young Nate and the lot older Margaret.
No this is not another version of Harold & Maude.
Hr is a young and open guy, while she is a little prude and closed. She tries to be an easy person and is doing stand up comedy.
They talk about everything and go together out, as Nate doesn't care about what other people think of them, not like Margaret who is following but looking around what other may think.
But nevertheless they seem to catch up from time to time and feel good together, have fun and share a lot. Seems they have much in common till one day- and we expect this- something new arrives and their friendship come to a test. Both have to come out of their bubble and shell and so ways getting apart.
Now you could expect corny story telling or a lot of cliches coming up but this is not happening in this movie.
The drama is told in a very smooth and soft way, although it is not like touching it like it is a vulnerably thing. The fun comes often unexpected and is kind of gentle.
So it is not a loud movie and will not bring you to tears without end, but you want to follow the story to the end, knowing how they cope.
Cose you see in some ways yourself, your own mistakes and stupid acting you do sometimes. You hope there is a way out and you know their can be.
Well, this movie is one of those you will like watching, and afterwards you will think a bit about it. Not bad for a movie, as we have a lot where you feel nothing at all afterwards.
Thought it's not a magic and magnificent film you will watch. Yes best to watch it with friends, maybe your best friends.
If I had to rate it would be 4 of 5 stars...
Love & Light
