About
You may like this if you want a quiet, emotionally direct relationship drama in the vein of A Walk on the Moon or The Human Stain; Not for you if you want fast pacing, warmth, or restrained intimacy.
Pros: honest mature romance; emotionally moving moments; fresh older-age perspective | Cons: very slow pace; explicit sexual content; thin character depth
