Liam Neeson (Love Actually) and Lesley Manville (a complete 180 from her acidic role in Phantom Thread) star as a couple who, by every single possible metric, love each other deeply and easily. But when Manville's character is diagnosed with breast cancer, the two must summon every ounce of courage, vulnerability, and heartfelt gesture to survive and thrive. The performers look so at ease with each other, boosted by a lovely screenplay from Irish playwright Owen McCafferty and gentle, naturalized direction from duo Lisa Barros D'Sa and Glenn Leyburn (Good Vibrations). It just... really looks like a goddamn wholesome movie, one that will cause you to shed a tear while your heart grows bigger. And isn't that what we want from a movie these days?
