Susan and Rose,,,who wants more?
8 September 2016
my expectations from a Susan Sarandon movie are high. the movie was not a disappointment at all..I enjoyed it a lot and so did my wife, Susan Sarandon was great, Rose Byrne- who I like a lot too- did not have enough space with Susan but did great in what was left for her the story is somehow predictable, a lonely widow who meddles in her daughter messed life with all the expected funny and -not so funny- situations ..but the smart deep lines embedded make the fabric of the story much deeper and much more fun to watch. there might be some exaggerations in some parts ( like whats her name wedding) but all presented in accepetable. in one particular scene, Susan tops herself...she is sitting with her late husband brothers..and she mentions that it has been a year since he passed, they are all puzzled..you mean two years...she corrects herself at once ( I meant one year since last year) then her face shows the fact the time is not passing for her.
