Someone else reviewed this film and likened it to a Hallmark movie. I can only surmise they have never seen a Hallmark movie because there is no similarity whatsoever.
It's a beautifully crafted set of snapshots of all the places we go as people during our relationships. It shows us our strengths and our weaknesses, it shows that life has one course to lead but many adventures along the way and we have to embrace everything we can and let go of all that we can too.
Clemens is beautiful in this film, she truly is the epitome of Carey: of all women living Carey's life. She reminds me of a young Michelle Williams. Raw, but cleverly raw.
The direction and dialogue is superb, and I watched it all in one go which is rare for me. If you sometimes wonder about life and love and death and loss, watch this.

Real life story
A very moving and surprising film.
Honestly what a lovely surprise. It wasn't anything I expected and we all loved this movie. You know how you sometimes see. Movie and think to yourself that you're going to see a these actors a bunch more going forward? I remember thinking that in Boogie Nites. I expect the same to be true with this one. Wiithout a doubt I expect to see a these actors and director more over the next few years. I had a some idea going in cause I'd also heard the play was fantastic.
Not to mention that as much of a nerd as I am I was so happy to not see another marvel movie. More movies like Swearing Jar please!
Loved it.
I loved this movie!! It is just a beautifully shot film. I absolutely found the cinematography stunning. The acting is truly wonderful as is the direction. I was able to see it at TIFF and honestly cannot recommend it highly enough. If it is playing anywhere near you find the time to go and see it. The story is timeless and life affirming. I don't really have much more to say. It was a really great film, one of those ones that leaves you feeling it afterwards, but apparently I have to write more characters for my review. Did I say go see it if you get the chance? Go see it if it is playing anywhere near you and you get the chance!!
