    THAT ENDING... ME TEARS

  • ★★★½ review by Brandon Hart on Letterboxd

    An affectionate study of a woman who attempts to live a youthful life, unable to accept the path she's laid out for herself, and it's genuinely touching instead of irritating?

    And it brought some tears out of my eyeballs?

    And Sally Field makes Doris, though a flawed person, an utter joy to watch?

    And Michael Showalter's directorial skill is 100% great?

    And its raw family drama is deeply affecting?

    And it's extremely funny?

    And I'd recommend it to everybody I know?

    Wow wow wow, Michael Showalter. Wow.
