Robert S @RT89139686 Jul 3, 2026 This is an 80-minute movie, produced by the Duplass Brothers, which is the only reason I gave it a try. I lasted 30 minutes before voting with my feet. The use of a dead character, communing with the living in the high desert simply fell apart. That old trope hasn't worked since Topper, and Topper was a comedy. The kiss of death was when four drag queens - in full face and gowns - show up in the high desert and start spouting politically correct empowerment advice for the straight woman who is grieving. Then they dress her up in drag. Hell to the no on that. And BTW - Daveed Diggs (who I loved in Hamilton on Broadway in 2016) has lost his looks, charisma, and physique. Sad.

I could def feel the director's priv. I think it might have been interesting if she actually had to work and got to spend time w/ him when they came home, maybe escaping to the desert for parts of it. But still, I enjoyed it for what it was Knowing her love for her husband, M. Duplas, I wonder if this film is her way of processing the fear of losing him and how painful the possibility of that must be. Knowing how publicly they've talked about how intertwined they are (celebrated their codependency) It did a good job of capturing when you first lose someone, how it feels they're still w/ you. hearing what they’d say in response to everything. these private moments you find yourself wondering if they could see them why they’d think& the overwhelm that comes w/ that.. Great music and great acting.
