Intimate
In a word, it is just that. A story told from the time-disjointed perspective of two young hapless lovers, whose directions in life hit an abrupt cul-de-sac. One, happy to ‘be’ as he found his match, the other restless for what could have been.
Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams do a stellar job. See it with someone you love.
It isn’t all hearts and kisses, but it is sweet .. bitter sweet at times.
