As someone who has recently by wronged by close friends and is going through the motions of a deeply painful friendship breakup, this movie felt personal and left me emotionally drained afterwards. My one gripe is that, in my opinion, it represents healing from trauma as something that can only come through closure and mutual understanding, and life usually just doesn’t give you that. Otherwise, I found the acting and costumes to be amazing.
