I love this movie like a person. It pierced my heart the way certain paintings or pieces of music do. The way standing at the foot of a mountain does. The first time I saw it, I had to stay in my cinema seat for five minutes after it ended, to finish crying. The second time, I vowed to watch it more analytically, but ended up crying all over again.

It’s a fact of life that a novel about the right to die can’t be represented in depth in 105 minutes.

An icy Sarah Gadon can’t plumb it, offering a quietly mannered performance where a beautifully furrowed brow and occasional tear suggest the character cares more about looking elegant than dying. Thankfully, in the warmer roles of Yoli and her resilient Mennonite mother, Alison Pill and Mare Winningham do find the big broken heart at the core of this story.

I did enjoy Allison Pill's work. I do think she's an actress that should get a little more appreciation, but past that element, I considered the film to be utterly unremarkable. As a whole, it was merely mediocre.
