The problem rich white people have is that they're living **too long**. This film is the cure for that. Basically takes us on the same journey as _Paddleton_ though on the upscale road, which is more far comfortable and so much less moving. Kate Winslet proves she's the garlic of cinema (she makes everything she touches better) and there are some emotional scenes, but this ode to euthanasia doesn't kill it.
An interesting character study in the final days of the life of a grandmother going through assisted suicide, and the drama that occurs between her family as they gather for her final moments on earth. Captivating and tense, but oddly enough did not come off as sad to me. Has some really solid performances, and solid cinematography. Deliberately paced, but didn't overstay its welcome. Worth watching.
A little too heavy with the melodrama at times, but this is still an affecting and emotionally complex drama. It's not without levity - there are some moments where you will crack a smile - but expect tears, heartache, and a gut punch reminder of the special people you need to spend more time with in your life.
