I definitely didn’t go in expecting much (or anything) from this, but I thought it had genuine moments of hardship and dread.

Not perfect, not horrible. Very good for the demo it was targeting.

Given the fact that you’re one of the biggest Meryl Streep fans I know, I figured you might see this before me. Surprised I beat you to the punch. ;-)

I’ll be curious to hear what you think.

Great review, Mark! Never in a million years I would’ve thought this would be “dour and depressing”. The trailer and poster make it look super light. I’m curious about this one, mainly for Meryl Streep.
