Imagine a film about a close family struggling to work in their small business, and a coming of age film for their daughter, who wants to be a singer instead of joining the family business where she is much needed.
The film reminded me of the film Ladybird: a realistic film, including some vulgar language etc. that make the bluenose types faint, but also showing working class folks and a strong family.
it was one of several family films (albeit not G rated family films) up for the Oscar.
Along with Belfast and King Richard, it contradicts the complaints that everything Hollywood puts out is bad.
Except this was not Hollywood but an independent film picked up by Apple+ streaming service (which we don't get here).
A three handkerchief film.
I rate it five out of five stars.
