Raye Levine plays the part of Lucy like the heroine from a Stendhal novel... with a complex and cold intelligence.
Merry Good Enough is a wonderful film about the holidays, and is filled with a type of awkward suspense that is all its own. The film is neither sentimental nor cliche in that very commercial and typical style of Christmas movie making. Instead, the smartness of the script and its actors all work well to remind us of the difficulties we may have when coming together to celebrate with family.
I kept thinking about the nuances in this film, even days after watching it. It is highly recommended.
