Wissenswertes
In a 2022 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Michael Morris spoke about the reasoning behind shooting the movie on 35mm film: "Right at the beginning, I knew that I wanted this to have the texture and grit and grain of film. I wasn't directly trying to make a 1970s movie, but I knew it would carry that kind of atmosphere about it. A lot of the visual references actually were from mid-century street photographers, who obviously shot on film. When Larkin Seiple came on board to shoot it, we looked at each other and we were like, 'This has to be on film, right?' We tested 35, 16 millimeter, and some digital grain filters. But it was clear after the test that there was only one choice, and I didn't want fake grain on this. I wanted to be ingrained in more of an American look."

Sweeney: You're living, right? I'm sorry it ain't a fairytale. We all should have done things differently. But you're what's wrong with you. Not anyone else.

Heartbreaking story that makes you cry in a good way.

One of the very best films I saw at SXSW 2022.

I don't usually cry watching films but the characters were so genuine and heartfelt that I did. Another male audience member said the same thing: not someone who cries but this time yes. One thing I really liked was the way in which the writers don't spoon feed you the story; some things are unexplained and you don't always understand exactly why or what is happening just like in real life. Combined with the handheld camera work, there was a gritty fly on the wall perspective. This gave it the feel of a "filmmaker film" rather than a Hollywood focus group formula.

Andrea really showed her acting chops; I had to look her up and see what films I had been missing. But sadly she seems to have mostly been in schlocky formulaic films in the past. Hoping this is the inflection point where she starts getting more roles of the caliber of her acting.
