So realistic that it's uncomfortable

Rating: 8/10 (31 December 2019)

Is it possible to simultaneously dislike and really like a film? Because that's how I felt about Marriage Story. The dialogue was so well written, and the performances were so realistic that I felt uncomfortable watching the story unfold. It was as if I were intruding on some strangers' very personal experiences. And yet this movie also features warm humor and a positive message. I hope to never experience the pain of divorce, but I'm glad I was able to experience Marriage Story.
