A brief trip back home turns into a longer stay when Eric finds himself caught between catching up with his two sisters and conquering his old poker group. The more Eric extends his visit to prove that he is still the best poker player in town, the harder it becomes to steer clear of the old fault lines in his relationship with his sister Rachel. As their little sister Maggie attempts to recreate the intimate world they once shared, Eric and Rachel are faced with the divide between their childhood selves and the adults they have now become.
Displaying all the sensitivity and wicked humour of his previous works, Dustin Guy Defa’s new film is a shrewd study of the pitiless condition known as adulthood. After growing up in a family unit that constitutes your whole world, with its particular set of habits and a shared language, crossing the border into the realm of adults can feel disempowering, even terrifying. A sense of loss may be difficult to ever really overcome. The film’s meticulous structure and novelistic depth lay bare this fundamental fear, but also the resources that exist to fight it. Setting about this treasure hunt deep within as individuals and as a family is an admirable trio of actors whose interpretation is as nuanced as it is poignant.
我真的…大无语，老洪啊！磕CP磕到这来了，哎，又喜又无奈
一般洪的电影都属于休息时刻，不投入感情和思考，懒洋洋看几个角色互相夸赞，洒洒陈芝麻。人物没有弧光，都是老树一样稳定的品性，在每个洪尚秀平行宇宙都能构建起一桌酒局。这部意外的很喜欢，可能因为小说家偶尔在一旁的蹙眉让我突然代入进去，不能继续在宇宙边缘静止观察。她对创作和感受和规则和人情和性的表达头一回让我觉得哦，原来就是这么回事，原来在老树林中做一只有眼睛的鸟就是这样的生活状态。结尾看她抽烟的时候也好想抽烟，一口长气叹了出来。总之就谢谢洪尚秀吧，希望他继续用李慧英。
就，还是那样子。3.5 @Berlinale
感觉李的角色就是性转版的洪，这样看多了一分狡黠与真诚。最后在电影院似乎是一个环形结构，让我又分不清短片和结局是想象还是现实。
转向女性的交谈是一件非常美妙的事情 洪导还比较诚实
63/365 第一部洪常秀 生活流电影 结构大于影像 很有灵气
2022.4.21 韩国首映 Cinecube. 洪尚秀变了…变了好多…已经脱离了很多 越来越纯粹了 好像就是电影本身 虽然无法定义 但电影本身就是这样。金敏喜就像普通人一样，捧着狗尾巴花，笑着，哼着婚礼进行曲，纯粹本身。
能说会道自尊心还挺重的小说家给金敏喜夫妇策划的狗粮vlog 演员和摄影全由夫妇俩自带
好吧，你牛逼，你做到了，我们也羡慕死了
22/6/24：洪导为了敏喜再也不猥琐了！不惜打破结构的彩色片尾随便怎么理解，我希望洪导的电影一直保持独立的恬静下去。
女性与女性之间的互相欣赏，两人的轨迹因散步而重合，变得形影不离，至小说家的电影放映而分离。最后被一万点伤害暴击…
2022-98 从金敏喜的出现，电影一扫之前的阴霾，氛围愈发晴朗，像是戏外两人镜花水月的相遇。这才是真正的像写情书一样拍电影。
老三样：偶遇，尬聊，喝酒。另外，这部片子是不是用手机拍的啊？
算是这几年来洪尚秀最轻松的作品了。公园散步借小说家之口说出最想说的话，小说家完成拍电影的梦想，一天之中见完老友，完成拍片却没能直接面对作品。彩色部分回到现实，现实的甜好过虚构的甜嘛？
无语，洪老头怎么还换着花样撒狗粮啊。对洪老头这种絮絮叨叨自我表达的电影越来越没兴趣了。单纯想看一眼敏姐，过得好我就放心了。但凡让敏姐露个正脸，魅力秒杀所有人。
有个疑问，提出来恐怕不礼貌，但知识不能不求甚解，所以还是要问：拍洪尚秀的电影需要化妆吗？
小说家的状态挺喜欢的，好像那些旧的联系并没有那么重要，电影才更重要一些。
还是偶遇，尬聊那点事儿。这次主题意外的浅显，就是赞美老婆漂亮又可爱，最后再撒一波狗粮秀恩爱，这样都能拿奖你敢信？
8｜谢谢Lim和FLC做这个pre-premiere！喜欢！charisma那段是自我致敬独立在夜晚的海边吧哈哈？感觉连金敏喜都很松弛很自由（为了花和金敏喜变成彩色的影像，好甜
这部的温柔让我转粉了，一面脆弱不安地自述，一面示爱又情怯依然。
