I'd nearly given up hope that there are still filmmakers out there capable of a film like this. What a relief!
As to the overly critical critics who just didn't get it, I wish for you the kind of loss that devastates, leaving you a heap, barely able to breathe. I wish this not as a curse but as a blessing. It is the kind of blessing that can tear you down, tear you apart, then somehow build you back up, put you back together, better than before. For if you knew this kind of loss, this film would make sense to you, would touch you, would lift you up and inspire. Please come back again when you're more mature, more seasoned, more wise. Until then, just a suggestion, STFU.
For those of you who get this movie, my heart goes out to you. We are, I'll bet, kindred spirits. Thank you for your courage and your wisdom. Life, as we so well know, is devastating and beautiful, often all at the same time.
Keep being real in your grief and your glory.
Oh, and about the movie: It was good to the last (tear) drop.
