The Real Review

This quiet coming-of-age story works for nearly everyone, landing as a beautifully acted and deeply felt look at grief. Katherine Mallen Kupferer is great as Minnie, a shy teenager who finds an unexpected friendship with her best friend's mother, Helen, played by a moving Sophie Okonedo. The few reservations come from the creative direction, with some finding the story of a grieving senior a bit too familiar and quiet. But for most, the emotional truth of the performances and story is completely winning.
