    At turns funny, sweet, sad, trenchant and telling. It's a gem.

    Everything about this subtly directed drama enhances its pathos and humor, especially an astonishing performance by Gorintin, a 90-something woman only a few years into her acting career.

    The last minutes of the film are exhilarating, but its real triumph is in everything that precedes the ending--the relatively simple lives of the three women up to that point.

    Almost unbearably moving at times, Julie Betuccelli's simple but sublime debut feature presents a portrait of maternal love and female fortitude that will reduce the stoniest of viewers to tears.

    Incredible writing and acting that nail raw emotional nerves in the viewer. Masterful acting that will hold you teetering in suspense on the verge of bawling.… Expand

    One of the most intimate and moving films I've seen. Beautifully fimed, fabulously real acting and I'm not ashamed to say it made me bawl.

    A superb film above love and family. Esther Gorintin is a wonder as are the other 2 female leads. A do not miss film.

    Pehaps my expectations were too high but for the most part I wasn't as moved by this film as perhaps I should have been. Someone, somewhere else said everything happened on the screen, over there, that they weren't personally moved..same for me. A good film, but alas, just because it's better than so much out there does not make it a ten.… Expand
