Plot

Carol Peterson, widow and former singer, lives alone with her dog Hazel. She has a set routine, watering plants, playing cards with her friends and watching the television. However, when she has to put Hazel down and her life starts to feel empty. She runs into Bill at a store, and after a brief interaction, she is intrigued. Convinced by her friends she decides to give the retirement home speed dating a chance and is disappointed but after running into Bill again outside, they exchange contacts and go on a date. Does their relationship blossom into something? How does a person who has already lived a full life deal with dating again?

Star Performance

Blythe Danner gave an amazing performance and her on-screen presence captivated the audience. She effortlessly portrayed emotions of loss, attraction and an overall comforting presence. The rest of the cast did what was expected of them and created a comfortable environment that helped me relax and enjoy the movie.

Analysis

The movie is heartwarming and wholesome. We are introduced to Carol’s routine with Hazel, and the contrast of her life without the dog can make any pet owner get emotional. Her friendship with the pool guy, Llyod seems natural, and doesn’t come off as forced. The story especially showed old people in a different light. You don’t see them as someone’s grandparent or parent but as their own individual selves who are trying to enjoy what is left of their life. I was constantly smiling throughout the movie, especially when Carol and her friends decide to smoke weed and have to deal with a police officer in a wholesome and hilarious interaction. In the end, Carol adopting an old dog shows that just because you have grown old doesn’t mean you can’t have fun and enjoy your remaining days. It’s an amazing movie.

What’s there?

  • The story was amazing, and felt refreshing. It was different from the usual movies.
  • The pacing of the movie was good, it didn’t feel like any scene was being dragged on.
  • There were many wholesome moments throughout the movie and the characters were a comforting presence.

What’s not there?

  • Didn’t think anything was missing in the movie.

Verdict

Overall, a good watch and kept a smile on the face. It shows old people in a different light. Anyone looking for a comforting movie should definitely watch this.
