Michael B @RT01133297 08/15/2025 I can’t believe how poorly this was rated. I watched in mid 2025. It is a sweet, somewhat formulaic film, but I liked it. It is a sweet message about art, and life, and family, and complexity. It has a handful of beautiful moments. It leaves a lot unanswered. I really enjoyed it. See more Alan R. @Aremde 08/13/2025 Much better than indicated the rating. This is an excellent movie, full of life and subtlety as well as beautiful images and great acting. Just don’t expect an obvious linear plot which this movie does not have. It’s much better than that.

This movie moved me See more Barbie M @RT30512723 03/21/2025 I was surprised to see the low rating here. It didn’t seem justified. The one critique I would give it: the nudity was a distraction from the beauty of the film, for me, it felt exploitive, then garish, then off-topic. Otherwise the film was visually compelling, uncluttered, original, curious, comical, tender, of course artful, and ultimately very satisfying. It was directly and subtly about making something glorious, why it’s worth it, and where the drive comes from—this is so hopeful—and why I watch movies, to see a little divinity inside an experience that resonates, even if the details have little to do with my own experiences, yet are woven with familiar threads, the ridiculous, the heartbreaking, the miraculous, a desire for things to be whole, to be refined, to be joyfully hopeful, to snatch us out of darkness.

Came for Jenny Slate and Jessica Hecht, stayed for the unique story, nice performance by Alex Sharp and sweet statements about family and art. I wonder about the "critics" sometimes.
