A Beginner's Guide to Grief (2022– ) User Reviews

Hidden Australian Gem

[bigrenz1 · 7/10 · 23 March 2023]

A great little Australian comedy by Anna Lindner whom I'd seen in The Hunting late last year.

Really understood how overwhelming it can all be when everyone is trying to pull you in a different direction when all you want to do is just disappear from the world and all your responsibilities.

Interesting to see how differently others see our parents when we have a very fixed view of them.

For me, Carlo Ritchie stole the show.

Isaiah was a cretin but he brought laughs everytime he was on the screen.

Cassandra Sorell really made me empathise at how difficult it must be growing up in foster homes and how all it takes is one parent to change that.

I recommend this if you like silly Australian comedy and have an hour spare!

Actually a good guide to grief

This was amazing, it's the perfect mix of moment that will make you smile and one's that will make you cry.

Funnily enough even though the title is tongue-in-cheek, I did find this a good God for grief. It has moments that really make you feel the things you're avoiding feeling and then moments that remind you of the world is still going on and can be of joyful fun place.

Family dynamic of religion vs Actual wishes of the person dying was really interesting for me coming from a conservative family with strict religious views, when my views on how I wanna go a very different.

The cast was fantastic, the 2 leads especially.
