It's really complicated and kind. Doris is just trying to be a kid! Kristine is just ... mostly trying. She's angry at the world because that's the only way she knows to be angry. I did appreciate at how gracious Doris' friends were overall, even if they didn't really get what she was going through.
Doris and Paul do have a kind friendship and connect through grief. It's definitely subtle and not heavy-handed.
It was a movie I expected but also more emotionally devastating than I did. I mean that in a good way. It's not revolutionary filmmaking but Chinn is confident here. I'll love to see what she does next, but if this is all she does, I am happy she made this.
