I definitely understand where you’re coming from, as well. It did have a more natural feel than a lot of bigger budget films, and I think that’s due to the ad-libbed scenes with the baby and conversations between Kendrick, Lynskey, and Dunham. I was on the fence for most of it, but found the ending pretty bland. Indie film lovers should give it a shot, though.

I appreciated that none of the characters experienced a major change of heart or anything like that. It felt more natural, and the conversations felt meaningful and real. Probably not something I’ll recommend to many others, but I enjoyed it a lot.
