Heartbreaking yet beautiful film

Rating: 8/10 (22 December 2019)

Terrific writing, direction, and acting-it is a painful story but also sensitive and compassionate. Adam Driver's song toward the end along with the accidental injury become the symbols for the couple's mistakes, sorrow, and eventual breakup. And yet, despite a really tense argument, these two people apologize, mostly treat each other with respect, still hug and kiss greetings (she even still calls him 'honey'), make way for one another and little kindnesses as they build a new life that will keep their son centered. It's mature and loving even with the breakup. Strongly recommended. (I took a couple of points off only because I found the lawyers and home investigator ridiculous.)
