I saw this film at a film festival and it surprised me. I was expecting a depressing tone and instead we were laughing along with the entire audience. The dialogue was at times cutting and sometimes harsh but it was really funny in a cerebral way. The way we communicate during tough times with people we love is really examined in this movie. The actors' performances stole the show. George Katt was amazing as the self absorbed Nate. Jen Burry was incredible as his wife Paige. Taylor Negron was a revelation. This was his last film unfortunately but it was one of his most revealing and honest in my opinion. I wish he were here to see how well his performance is being received. His performance along with the other actors and the film itself was well deserving of the awards it has won! A great job by writer/director Brian Ackley. The film will not be for everyone and it doesn't need to be.
