Pretty boring. An actress not getting the roles any more due to getting older now has her niece come and stay who is an aspiring actress. There is a couple of rather odd, unnecessary and awkward nude scenes between the aunt and niece where they playfully interact while nude and laugh like its normal. It seemed a little gratuitous and felt quite obviously forced, especially the scene with the hose and taking the pictures. Like, is this common?

The key characters have the expected emotional journey, but its hard to say that journey takes the movie anywhere interesting. You get the feeling of where they hope it will go, but it just doesn't get there, or even close.

Also some bonus global warming/climate issues rolled in there for effect.

It's all pretty mid tbh.

Had I known that Jane Adams had done a film with the guy who wrote and directed Drinking Buddies and Win it All, I would've been on this way sooner. Jane Adams as like a little hidden gem of an actress for me. Even though I'd love for her to break out with bigger and better roles. She just seems to exude a certain realness that's often hard to transfer onto the screen. Even seeing her nude in this was the cutest non-sexual scene I've come across in a while. It's like watching real life.

But the end scene where her character Marie is cozying up with her neighbor Rusty on the couch was so damn sweet and authentic that it kinda blew me away. Their expressions, their gestures and how they talked to each other was as real as it gets. I felt like a voyeur watching these people and the intimacy they enjoyed in each other as friends.

Unfortunately, none of the other actors appealed to me in any way, but I could easily watch more of Marie and Rusty.
