Bleeding Love (2023)
7/10
From families comes strength
28 February 2024
A father takes his estranged daughter on a road trip in an effort to get her out of trouble. Along the way they meet all types of strangers, as their strained relationship is put to the test.

I've never seen Clara McGregor before, but some of the issues she faced in real life are played out in this story. It's a testament to Ewan's character that he joined in with his daughter to make this cathartic film.

It lays bare the things you don't even know you do that affect others so deeply. And the way you think you have been kind when really you have striped someone of their dignity.

It shouts volumes that only looking for truth and meaning brings answers which ultimately creates peace.

Their performances are fabulous and I suspect because they are lived experiences. But the director deserves a shout out for bringing all of that out and showing life as raw as it can be.

I loved this film, it won't be the only time I watch it.
