The best part was the tap dance because that was the long time coming end. A lot of heavy yet dry dialogs between friends and the daughter. It could have done better either with a revalation or something to sink your teeth into. Maybe it would have been better suited for a short film due to how drawn out the stories and reminiscing was. To be honest of it wasn't for the fact that one of my favorite actors was in the film I literally would have stopped watching ten minutes in. This is a very slow burn with flat characters all taking turns reliving subtle and precious yet very uninteresting details. There probably should have been some character tie in or flashback to make it actually strike a chord...no connection to the story. I felt like I crashed a wake of a funeral, very out of place.

So confusing
graceesutton31 December 2021
This was the worst movie I have ever seen. In no way did any of the three storylines interconnect or relate to one another. The acting was also subpar. There was no plot- no climax at all. The first section was the best one, even though so much was unclear throughout this part. The second section was pointless with horrible acting and odd twists. The third section was the worst, and none of the interactions between the actresses seemed genuine and the script was horribly written. It would have been a waste of an hour and a half if my mom and I didn't have so much fun making fun of it the entire time.
OMG. What did we just watch? 😂

I watched it with my boyfriend just now and if not a bottle of wine we had, we would have not survived that.
Some actors are really known and good actors so till 65th minute of the movie we really hoped for a great turning point or any kind of a story line. There was absolutely none. No plot at all. Three completely random stories with zero connection. Badly written script with boring dialogues that didn't make any sense, not mentioning bad directing and acting (especially in the last part).
It's a pity cause the title, description and even the beginning were promising for a cosy Saturday evening movie. The movie made it to my top3 worst movies I have ever watched and I'm just mad at myself to have paid 7$ for that movie instead of spending it on another bottle of wine.

Beautiful and emotional

I don't understand why the movie has such a bad score because it is really good. It is different, but so realistic and so true. The first story is too good to be true, as it turned out, the second is funny and so real, and my favorite, the third one that made me cry and cry. So beautiful and emotional. So, it is not a comedy, but it's an interesting movie to watch with your best girlfriend. The third story made me think about how such a good friend and person can have such a difficult relationship with her kid and it made me worry about my own relationship with my daughter, who is only six, but still...
Such a Beautiful

Such artful direction. I loved all the stories. The Skype date was priceless! I felt such a range of emotions while watching this heartfelt film: joy, laughter, love, and loss. Hats off to the filmmakers, this is a movie that deals with the human condition, the interplay of emotions about the fragility of relationships and the strength of the human heart. Bravo!
A Poignant Place to Ponder

Warning: Spoilers
There's an absolute need for a movie like this: one that affords a kind of "will to stay married" as the reason people do stay married.
I adore Rosanna Arquette and was happy to see her pretty face and her always interesting and iconic character choices.
The movie, in three classy, funny, maddening vignettes shows a triptych drama of marital love challenged to endure with the third panel even offering transcendence of such.
In all three plays, the female of the partnership is the yielder and bender and visionary, holding form when infidelity or disappointment or boredom or heartbreak jag at the connubial container. Perhaps because this female steadiness is often so.
Chris Messina can do no wrong and his animation of a lovable lothario is par excellence.
Joanne Whalley is shockingly beautiful, Kathy Baker once more inhabits true life in such a way that her very breath seems to waft off the screen.
The movie and ending song's message - about love being the restorative tool for all broken places - was brought to my attention last night by a friend celebrating a notable birthday.
Refreshing and helpful and in this case, entertaining words to hear.
