This tone poem spanning the life of a woman from girlhood to grandmother lacks any kind of narrative shape -- a dreadfully slow affair that tries to shorthand imagery for true emotion.
I agree, 100% with this critic. I actually googled to find out what the hell was going on in this movie, especially after watching “the hug”! (it jumped suddenly was that her dad or her little boyfriend from 10 years ago? Did her mother die? Dad shows up and then disappears and suddenly she’s 10 years older?) It was a movie, but I couldn’t finish it. It was too frustrating. A24 Movies are always on point. I purchased this movie so I could watch it as some critics said it was wonderful. Unfortunately, it was not.
