Sad, poignant, funny, and beautiful are words that best describe this film. If this film doesn't make you feel sone kind of emotion, you are absolutely heartless. You love these characters. You feel for them on every single level. The film itself feels like a film from the 70s. The twists and turns the film takes are wonderful and heartwarming/heartbreaking. Paul Giamatti is excellent as always. This is Dominic Sessa's first film and he does an outstanding job. No crazy special effects or bloated explosions. Just great filmmaking. It's streaming on Peacock. An absolute holiday must. Take the time to watch it. You'll love it.
