An affecting, offbeat family drama glimpsed through the prism of queerness, starring Olivia Coleman and John Lithgow as a daughter and father navigating their scratchy past and vanishing future.
Great review. The generational divide you highlighted btween Jim rejecting bisexuality as wishy-washy and Frances embracing queerness is spot on for how identity politics evolved. I've noticde that Boomer activists often struggle with the fluidity younger folks demand because they fought so hard for fixed categories. Sophie Hyde's naturalistic approach sounds perfect for letting those tensions breathe without becoming preachy.

Chris: You had me at Lithgow and Coleman. Sounds like another entry to my most-see list.
